Xabi Alonso's plan to move to Real Madrid is next season and I think for this season Xabi Alonso will do his best with Leverkusen.
The improvement in the performance of the Leverkusen team has actually been visible since the arrival of Xabi Alonso in the middle of last season and I see that this is quite consistent so it is very possible for Leverkusen to be able to compete fiercely in the top flight of the Bundesliga this season and also when you look at Bayern's strength which is still able to be matched, it makes Leverkusen's possibility of winning the Bundesliga title and breaking Bayern's dominance is quite wide open this season.
Will that really happen? At this time it is still speculation and it is quite natural that there are rumors like that circulating considering that quite often players who are successful at their club when they retire will return to the club in a different position, namely as coach. However, it is not impossible for Xabi Alonso to remain at his current club and complete his duties there until his contract is completed, because now it seems like he has a big chance of bringing Leverkusen to the title considering that this team's performance has been very consistent so far and last season they managed to reach the semifinals of the European League. It is not impossible that this season's achievements will be much better, and the club will certainly try to convince Alonso to stay here to build Leverkusen into an even stronger team.
