Won everything at Anfield, he's a Liverpool legend and now half of Europe is fighting for him

Undoubtedly one of the most memorable episodes in the history of our Liverpool was the 2005 Champions League title, known as the Istanbul Miracle, in which our team was losing 0-3 at halftime against AC Milan, but in the second half the players of that team became legends and managed to win the trophy in the penalty shootout.

That team had great names, players of enormous talent who that night became eternal figures in Liverpool's history, such as Steven Gerrard, Xabi Alonso, Jerzy Dudek and Jamie Carragher, all of them now retired and with different occupations. Of the aforementioned players, only Gerrard and Xabi Alonso are still professionally involved in football, as both are coaches.

The eternal captain, Steven Gerrard, has just accepted a million-dollar offer to manage Al-Ettifaq of the Saudi Pro League in Saudi Arabia, where he hopes to have a couple of good years and then look for a team in European football, according to various reports. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso has had a brief stint in the Bundesliga at the helm of Bayern Leverkusen, with whom he has left very good impressions.

Alonso's work on the bench of the German team has been very good, especially considering that his career as a professional coach has just begun. That is why it is now surprising that he is on the radar of big teams in Europe, but not because he does not have the same qualities he showed as a player in every team he played for, but because not only one team, but several, would be closely following his steps in the Bundesliga.

The big teams interested in Xabi Alonso

Xabi Alonso has aroused the interest of Spanish giants Real Madrid, the club with which he also won everything as a player, after it was announced the departure of Carlo Ancelotti, who will leave the Spanish club next year, so Alonso would be one of the candidates to take his place. However, our Liverpool is also following him closely as he would be considered a great coach to take Klopp's place in the future.
