The Possible Replacement for Xabi Alonso at Bayer is a Familiar Face to Real Madrid

The Interesting Option Bayer Leverkusen Considers to Replace Xabi Alonso

Throughout the entire season, Xabi Alonso's name has been linked with Real Madrid. After the highly irregular campaign by the Merengues, Xabi was seen as the ideal coach to bring the club back to the path of success.While nothing is confirmed about Xabi's possible arrival, Bayer Leverkusen is preparing.

In search of possible replacements, Bayer seems to have found a rather appealing option.To replace Xabi, Bayer has set its sights on his compatriot, Xavi Hernández, to continue the successful German project. After his time with Barcelona, Xavi has caused some interest in returning to the bench and guiding Bayer to more successes.

An option that certainly draws a lot of attention after the dreadful last season he had with Barcelona.Known more for his controversies than for his good soccer, Xavi is an option that could end up ruining Bayer Leverkusen's project.

The Old Rival of Real Madrid

Recognized for his career as a player, Xavi Hernández spent many years preparing as a coach.Away from Barcelona for a while, Xavi answered the call from the Culers when he felt ready to face new challenges. A decision that, seeing how the relationship between Xavi and Barcelona ended, ended up ruining the Culers even more.

With quite questionable schemes and an erratic attitude, Xavi's stint at Barcelona was fleeting and forgettable.Even so, LaLiga and the Spanish Super Cup he managed to win were enough titles to catch Bayer Leverkusen's attention.

Seeing Xavi as the ideal option to replace Xabi, Bayer has already reached out to a more than interested coach. Although nothing is confirmed yet, the only positive aspect of this possible operation would be the almost confirmed arrival of Xabi at Real Madrid.

A Xabi for a Xavi

Analyzing options like Imanol Alguacil or Erik Ten Hag, it is unbelievable that Bayer Leverkusen is seriously considering Xavi.With a few weeks left until the end of the season, we can only wait to see what the future holds for Bayer and Xavi.
