Xabi Alonso to Liverpool Claim Made as Arne Slot Sent Warning After Bournemouth Defeat
Liverpool contacted former Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso after a five-game winless streak, but Arne Slot will remain in charge until season's end, club says.
- Recently, Liverpool contacted Xabi Alonso to enquire about his availability, and Diario AS reports Alonso answered positively while resting.
- The Reds' recent run — winless in five league games — fuelled scrutiny as Liverpool FC lost to Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.
- Alonso's recent exit from Real Madrid makes him a live option as he was recently sacked and replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa, having also coached Bayer Leverkusen with success and played for Liverpool.
- Liverpool hierarchy has reassured Arne Slot he will stay until season's end, even as Alan Shearer criticised the team, saying they 'look miles off the team we saw last season' with defensive errors.
- Slot said `It is a cruel game if you lose in extra time after coming back from 2-0 down at half-time` and warned his players were tired after a congested schedule, as Saturday’s late Bournemouth winner exposed vulnerabilities.
