I still hope that Xabi will stay at Leverkusen, although it is not yet time to go to Madrid, for Leverkusen he can contribute much more.

That should be what Xabi Alonso should do, for now he is more focused on bringing Leverkusen to win the title this season before moving to another club, it is not easy to build a solid club like Leverkusen now where they have been very consistent since the start of the season on a winning path and until now is at the top of the standings, at least winning the title this season to break Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga.

Against Dortmund at home tonight will certainly be an interesting match to show Leverkusen's true strength where as we know Dortmund is not an easy opponent so Leverkusen must be able to show that they can get full points in tonight's match, Xabi Alonso of course must also prepare a strategy and more mature tactics to face Dortmund tonight. prediction for Leverkusen to win narrowly 1 - 0

When we refer to Xabi Alonso, at least to me Leverkusen and their entire board come to mind at once about how they can do to retain him, I think that before offering much more money, they should go their way, That is to say, because of his career and the options he has to continue growing and becoming more professional as a coach, because Madrid can give him much more money, but there he cannot lose, but rather win, win, win, always win, no. You can make mistakes, and when the crisis comes, sometimes you don't win, which is the position of first place or among the first is in suspense, because it is something difficult, it has been difficult for the greatest, even Ancelotti himself has found it difficult. side, because they are something that sometimes happens in football, it is normal, so things can be handled better now in Leverkusen, it is not that it is easier but he has a comprehensive adaptation and knows his team very well.

What I think that Xabi can do is that, of course what he thinks, that hopefully he leans towards Madrid, many rumors have said that yes, it is a fact, because even Ancelotti himself approves of it, I like it. I would like him not to leave yet, I think that if he wins the Bundesliga, things are very good for him because he is valued even more, he as a player was very good, he had a great presence on the field and that is something that can be seen You can tell, that Simer had that majesty, from what you see in Leverkusen they are very good chaos, I think it can make a difference if he is still there, I hope he can do it, I personally would like him to decide, yes Winning against Bayern Munich would be something historic and a large part of it would be due to his responsibility because he is a complete coach, it is one of the things that I most applaud the team for, it started from the bottom and now they have a top-level team, it is something Spectacually, the face of the Bundesliga is changing.

Players who suffer injuries will certainly greatly affect the team's performance, although it is not comprehensive, there are definitely things that make them lose control. I'm sure there will be a time when this team experiences this and until that happens they will be fine without any problems. The rivalry between Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will always be a hot topic of conversation and both of them are the teams most likely to win. Dortmund this time is not like the previous season and it looks like they will not participate in the race for the title considering their erratic performance.

The rivalry of these clubs for the Bundesliga title are on different titles this season, we just pray and hope for our favorite clubs to win games and lift major trophies. Borrusia Dortmund doesn't suit into the high competitive standards set up by Leverkusen and Munich. A club performance depends on the key players abilities and the tactics implemented by the coach. Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich players doesn't sustained any critical injuries and if they do, the club have backup players and they're holding for for incredible performance this season.

But, if they can keep their players fine, then of course the competition between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen will continue until the end of the season. I personally don't expect any serious injuries from these two teams at the moment, because of course so far they can still get good results because their players are still fine. Therefore, of course it would be very unfortunate if, for example, one of the teams got an injury to a key player, then that team would likely be out of title competition. But interestingly, after last match Bayer Leverkusen drew against Dortmund and in the next match Bayer Leverkusen will play against Stuttgart. Basically, Bayer Leverkusen at this moment is at least faced with several matches with difficult opponents . So yes, at this moment Bayer Leverkusen faces a challenge which remains difficult of course.

The good thing about all this is that things in the Bundesliga have changed, there is no longer a team in consideration as much as Dortmund, Dortmund until last season was expected to be something overwhelming, but it is not like that, yes, they are playing very well, because the game that fascinated me was Leverkusen and Dortmund, for me it is one of the best I have seen so far, on the other hand, Bayern is one of the teams that has the greatest degree of emotion when it comes faces the others, because they face pressure, that is, if they do not do well they could lose first place, or they could fall behind, and it could be the case that they leave this team thrown between Levermkusen and Dortmund, this That's what makes this more exciting, now if Things continue the way they are going, for me this league will be more exciting than many , where there is Always a lot of monotony , things are Changing , Especially for the fans who said that the Bundesliga was boring I just hope that Xabi Alonso doesn't leave Leverkusen.

In this we can think a lot, because first we have some things to say, what Xabi Alonso thinks to do better, because for him it is good if a Madrid calls him, just like the players, if he says no to MADRID, it will be that They call him back and he loses the opportunity to lead the team ? It is not known, this team is very delicate, also for some reason he said that if they need him he will leave, that is something that he has, he is very given to his word to keep it, and well that is something that is appreciated, I am a fan of Madrid and I know that if I were in 'For his players who are at Leverkusen, and then if he leaves this team would look bad , would it be the same Emotion that is being generated now? maybe not, but time will tell.

Carlo Ancelotti’s future at Real Madrid has been the subject of intense speculation in recent weeks. The Italian’s contract expires at the end of the season, and as of yet, no agreement has been reached over an extension.

If Ancelotti does end up departing, one of the favourites to replace him is Xabi Alonso. The 42-year-old, who was previously a youth coach at Real Madrid, is one of the best up-and-coming managers in world football at the moment, having significantly turned around Bayer Leverkusen’s fortunes over the last 12 months.

Alonso may have been heavily linked with Los Blancos, but he’s not overly sold on the prospect of leaving Leverkusen, as he told Movistar+ in an exclusive interview. He also commented on whether he has a release clause which can be activated by Real Madrid.

“These are contractual issues. I’m well attached here.”
