Xabi Alonso rejects Chelsea offer, waiting for Liverpool
Spanish coach Xabi Alonso has not yet made a final decision regarding his future. Currently, he is not rushing into an offer from Chelsea and is focusing his attention on a potential Liverpool move.
According to sports reports, the London club views Alonso as their primary candidate for the head coach position. However, the Spaniard prefers to wait for a potential vacancy at Liverpool, where he spent five seasons as a player.
Reports suggest that the future of current Liverpool head coach Arne Slot remains uncertain. While the club's management continues to express confidence in the manager, fans have openly voiced their dissatisfaction with his performance.
The source notes that if Xabi Alonso were not considering the Liverpool option, he would have already reached an agreement with Chelsea. However, the London club does not want to delay and plans to appoint a new coach before the start of the World Cup.
For this reason, Chelsea's management is also exploring alternative options. The list includes Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola, Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner, former Flamengo coach Filipe Luis, and Fulham manager Marco Silva.
At the same time, it is reported that Liverpool has not yet made a final decision regarding Xabi Alonso. According to reports, the Merseysiders requested additional information about the coach's working style and requirements from Madrid four days ago.
