Liverpool Football Club is set for an intriguing summer as Jurgen Klopp departs Anfield after a nine-year tenure, passing the baton to the next manager. Klopp’s impact goes beyond his tactical prowess and trophy collection, as he has brought energy and compassion to the role. His legacy will be spoken of in the same revered manner as Shankly, Paisley, and Dalglish in the years to come. Regardless of Liverpool’s performance in the 2023/24 season, Klopp’s imprint is indelible.
Meanwhile, Xavi Alonso, another Liverpool legend, is making a name for himself as a manager in the Bundesliga. His Bayer Leverkusen team, currently unbeaten, is in control of their destiny in the German top-flight title race. With only 12 games remaining, Leverkusen holds an eight-point lead over their closest rivals, Bayern Munich, who have won the last 11 consecutive titles. If this trend continues, Leverkusen will secure their first-ever championship, potentially intensifying the calls for Alonso’s return to Liverpool.
However, The Athletic (subscription required) reports that Bayern, a former club of Alonso’s, may pursue the Spaniard if they decide to part ways with their current manager, Thomas Tuchel.
