According to the source, the Citizens are interested in inviting the Spanish specialist should the current head coach Pep Guardiola leave the club.

However, Bayer believes that Alonso will head to Real Madrid, which is the favorite in the race for his signing next summer. Furthermore, the departure of the Spanish coach to the royal club will increase the chances of Bayer's attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz transferring to Real.
