Alonso determined to leave Leverkusen, takes the Spanish midfielder with him
After a spectacular 2023/24 season, Bayer Leverkusen in the current campaign has lost more points in the Bundesliga (13) than it did in the entire last championship (12).
In addition to winning the Bundesliga at the end of last season, Leverkusen reached the Europa League final (losing 0-3 to Atalanta) and won the German Cup, beating Kaiserslautern in the final (1-0).
However, within a few months everything changed and, according to the Eurosport TV channel, Xabi Alonso has already made the decision to leave at the end of the season and will join Real Madrid, the club he represented as a player between 2009 and 2014. .
He will be Carlo Ancelotti's successor. Both the Spaniard and the Italian have contracts with their respective clubs until 2026, but such a situation, the same source guarantees, will in no way prevent Xabi Alonso from joining the "Merengues" club.
According to Eurosport, Alejandro Grimaldo is also preparing to say goodbye to "Bay Arenas" after two seasons. The former Benfica man, who joined Leverkusen at the start of last season as a free agent, has always explained that he was convinced by Xabi Alonso to join the project and that he will follow the coach wherever he goes.
