Xabi Alonso: Bayern Munich chief Uli Hoeness says appointing Spaniard is ‘probably impossible’ – MASHAHER


Leverkusen have won 33 and drawn five of their matches this season

Bringing Xabi Alonso to Bayern Munich this summer is “probably impossible”, says the club’s honorary president Uli Hoeness.

Bayer Leverkusen manager Alonso, 42, is a target of Bayern’s to replace Thomas Tuchel when he leaves in the summer.

The Spaniard has also been strongly linked with replacing Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool but Hoeness says he will likely stay at Leverkusen.

“We’ll have to see if we can do it this year,” he said.

“It will be difficult, if not probably impossible.”

In his second year as a manager, Alonso is on the brink of leading Leverkusen to their first German Bundesliga title.

They are 10 points clear of champions Bayern with eight games remaining and have not lost in all competitions.

As well Liverpool and Bayern, Alonso has also been linked with Real Madrid, another of his former clubs from his playing career.

“[Alonso] is more inclined to stay at Bayer Leverkusen in view of their current successes, because he would not want to leave them behind,” Hoeness said.

“Let’s say if he had two or three more years of success, it would probably be easier to bring him out of there.”
