The Team's form has seen Alonso linked with a return to Anfield to replace Jurgen Klopp, who will leave at the end of the current season.
However, Real Madrid have also been linked with a move for the Spanish tactician, with many seeing him as a long-term replacement for Carlo Ancelotti.
Former Leverkusen managing director Reiner Calmund feels Alonso should take another season at Leverkusen and take the job at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“I firmly believe Alonso will be the coach of Leverkusen next season”, as per quotes from Diario AS.
“As a player he won everything, including the Champions League at Real Madrid. Ancelotti has extended his contract, so at the moment there’s no danger.
“If I was Alonso’s agent, I wouldn’t advise him to go to Liverpool as Klopp’s successor. I would recommend he stays in Leverkusen for one or two more years and then perhaps replace Ancelotti.”
