Liverpool and Bayern are competing for the signature of Xabi Alonso, who is currently making Bayer Leverkusen's dream come true with an eight-point cushion on top of the Bundesliga standings.
It has been reported that the Spaniard prefers Liverpool to Bayern and also that he would pick Bayern over Liverpool. A new update from Kicker journalist Georg Holzner has emerged.
"There are whispers in England, so Kicker has learned that Xabi Alonso is already in advanced discussions with Liverpool and that staying in Leverkusen is far from being ruled out. But Bayern will give everything," Holzner tweeted.
The journalist added that the defending Bundesliga champions do not limit their options to Alonso. They are also looking at Zinedine Zidane, Unai Emery, Hansi Flick and Sebastian Hoeness.
