For weeks the press has been talking about that possibility Xabi Alonso be the new coach of real Madrid next season. However, Germany took it upon themselves to reject such a possibility, arguing, among other things, that the coach renewed his contract in August.
Simon Rolfes, Bayer Leverkusen’s sports director, denied that the Whites had called the club inquiring about the coveted Basque coach, who has extended his contract until 2026. Alonso himself denied the rumours, saying no for a long time: “I am focused here in Leverkusen and I am very satisfied”.
Simon Rolfes, for his part, has now said: “There is an agreement by which he extended his contract not so many weeks ago. And he didn’t do it simply because but because he knows he has a great project here. a very good team, a very good coaching staff and total support in our club. That’s what motivates him and us. And I think that can also be seen in the players. That’s why he extended the contract. That there will be rumors, it’s okay, that happens But if all the rumors are true…half of the starting eleven is not on the field today,” Rolfes said with a smile.
Rolfes also said: “It’s different with a coach than with a player. For a coach what matters is if you’re in the right place. For a club, it’s about the feeling of having the right coach for the team. We both make a commitment “Of course with this a few weeks ago. So I’m very relaxed.”
