Xabi Alonso was a little braver. Most coaches would sign with one of their dream teams after such success, but Xabi has an unfinished story. He will try to continue this record with Leverkusen. They have been hungry for games since the final they lost to Atalanta and their players will return from Euro 2024 in better shape. They will play important matches and I think Xabi will be successful next year too, I think so. And everyone will have seen that this was not a chance, but a system and tactical success.
Xabi Alonso's belief in staying at Bayer Leverkusen and rejecting offers from other big teams is extraordinary proof that he is a coach who truly has a strong sense of struggle in a team. And this is also to prove that he is capable of making a team extraordinary through new records that they might still be able to achieve next season. But the new challenge for the Bayer Leverkusen team next season will certainly be much tougher than last season because they will be in the Champions League, which is a league with a much hotter level of competition.
