Who will be Thomas Tuchel’s successor at FC Bayern? The hottest candidate is still Xabi Alonso, who is currently on course for the championship with Bayer Leverkusen. Dieter Hoeneß believes that the Spaniard is the right coach for the German record champions.
Xabi Alonso is contractually bound to Bayer Leverkusen until 2026. However, it is highly doubtful that the 42-year-old will fulfill his contract with the Werkself due to the rumored interest from FC Bayern and Liverpool FC. However, the future of the coaching shooting star is still open.
At Munich, the ex-professional could take over from Thomas Tuchel. Its end in Munich has already been decided at the end of February. According to Sky, Alonso is leaning towards a move within the Bundesliga after initial discussions. According to “Football Insider”, this could cost FC Bayern up to 25 million euros.

Player agent Dieter Hoeneß has now also commented on the rumors about a change for the 2010 world champion. “It is extremely important that you reach the players.
Therefore, the football official comes to the conclusion that Alonso is “the right one [für den FC Bayern] would be, even if the Leverkusen fans don’t want to hear that.” “He has a natural authority who has gained great respect through his own career,” Hoeneß explained his opinion.
However, the 71-year-old is “not convinced” about a move to Anfield Road, where the long-time Spanish international could take up Jürgen Klopp’s great legacy. Alonso was on the pitch as a player for both the Reds and FC Bayern.
