Xabi Alonso appointed as Bayer Leverkusen manager (Vanguard)

German club Bayern Leverkusen has named former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso as the new coach for the club.

As a player, Alonso won the 2010 World Cup and two European Championships with Spain. He was also part of the team that won the Champions League trophy with both Liverpool and Madrid. AFP reported that Leverkusen confirmed the exit of the Swiss coach in the wake of Tuesday’s 2-0 loss at Porto in the Champions League which was one of the poor runs of form.

Xabi Alonso: "I feel I can improve Bayer Leverkusen" (Bundesliga.com - official website)

Xabi Alonso says he “can improve Bayer Leverkusen” after being appointed as the club's new head coach in the wake of Gerardo Seoane's departure.

I’ve taken the best from each manager but now I want to be my own person.” We want the crowd to be pushing us.” We want the stadium to be packed and to have a great atmosphere. “I want to give the team a clear idea of how we want to play,” he continued. I feel that I can play an important role here and have an impact on the team, that I can improve the team and myself. From that experience I tried to build my own personality. “We want to reach that by working every day. “They’ve always had great players and I can see a lot of quality in the current squad too.” “I trained to become a coach one day,” the 40-year-old said when he was officially unveiled on his return to the Bundesliga on Thursday, impressing media representatives with his excellent spoken German. After all, Alonso faced the Royal Blues the day after signing for Bayern in August 2014, helping them to a 1-1 draw en route to the first of his three Bundesliga titles. With just one win and five points on the board from eight matches so far, Leverkusen have struggled to replicate the swashbuckling displays that saw them swagger to third last season. “I was attracted by the club, the project and the team,” Alonso said, outlining his reasons for swapping northern Spain for North Rhine-Westphalia.
