Sometimes these two names are misplaced because they look and sound alike and both seem to have the same personality as young successful coaches. But you should know that it is Xabi Alonso if it is in the Bundesliga predictions thread while Xavi Hernandez is also for the La Liga.


Xabi Alonso wants to remain in Bayer Leverkusen and consolidate on his achievements like taking the club to the Champions League. He has committed himself to the team and I also assume that he would be offered an increased pay which will make him settle there. Ralf Rangnick has confirmed that he has been contacted by Bayern and he has also informed his current employer the Austrian Football Association. He has not confirmed he is leaving the Austria national team but he didn't also rule out the possibility. There is also some speculation that Bayern might consider licking their wounds and reconsider giving Thomas Tuchel another chance.
