Max Eberl, Bayern Munich's sporting director, was rather cautious in commenting on the rumours about Xabi Alonso's possible arrival at the helm of the German giants.

- I have not spoken to any coach and have received neither a refusal nor an agreement. Xabi Alonso played for Bayern Munich. But I don't want to say anything and provoke headlines like "Xabi Alonso is right for Bayern". I just cited a well-known fact and the fact that Xabi Alonso knows this club well," said Max Eberl.

We would like to remind you that Xabi Alonso is currently the head coach of Bayer Leverkusen, with whom he is quite confidently leading the German championship. The Spaniard also defended the colours of Bayern Munich from 2014 to 2017.
