Since last season, of the entity, it is linked to Tolosarra with Real Madrid, a team where he played for five seasons. Until now, the white eccentrocampist has always eluded questions about it in the press conferences talking about the present in the German club. But this Monday, Fernando Carro, CEO of the German club, has opened the door to a possible exit from Alonso at the end of this campaign in the previous delivery of the Laureus Awards. “In a few weeks we will know if there is a technical change. Since we signed to Xabi we knew that it was going to be a great coach and from the moment you have to one you have to prepare others. We have a gentlemen’s pact and if a team comes in which he has played we can sit down,” said a car.
Xabi Alonso has a contract with the German club until the summer of 2026 and despite these words of the Leverkusen CEO, Car says that Tolosarra is working with the club for the preparation of the team for the next year. In fact, he has confirmed that in March last year they met Alonso during the selections to evaluate his future and he replied that although he had offers offers of several teams he was going to continue with the German entity. In this year’s break they have also sat down to speak and have given themselves some time to decide the technician’s future. “In the world of football March it is a bit soon to decide and things can happen, but we are very calm,” says Carr. And he adds: “Our desire would be that he continue, but with him we are clear that the decision has to be in the next three or four weeks. We cannot wait at the end of the season to know.”
Fernando Carro has also talked about his relationship with Real Madrid. “We have an excellent relationship with José Ángel Sánchez and we have had some young player given here. We have talked about many players in the past, there is a fluid relationship and a relationship between two clubs that are respected,” explains the CEO.
This whole situation also depends. The Italian was eliminated last week in the quarterfinals of the Champions League against Arsenal with a poor image of the team in Europe except for the tie against Manchester City. Now he has the Copa del Rey final on Saturday to compensate and six league days where four points from Barcelona are separated.
