Bundesliga: Leverkusen's Sporting Director Confirms Alonso's Stay As Coach Next Season
CEO Simon Rolfes: Rejuvenated under Xabi Alonso, Bayer Leverkusen have surged back into Bundesliga title contention - a race many had written off a few weeks back. A 3-1 home victory over Bochum tightened the gap on leaders Bayern Munich, reigniting belief in the reigning champions.
Amid their title push with seven matches remaining, CEO Simon Rolfes addressed speculation around Alonso's future, confirming the Spaniard will honour his contract through 2026. "He is staying. There isn't anything else; he has a contract," Rolfes said, adding, "We are in close talks about this season and the upcoming one regarding our squad."
Rumours linking Alonso to Real Madrid persist as current Real coach Carlo Ancelotti faces a tax-evasion trial in Spain. Reports suggest a conviction could prompt another appeal from the Spanish club.
