Liverpool and Manchester City have reportedly been dealt a 'blow' as Xabi Alonso 's 'decision' will impact their pursuit of a Bayer Leverkusen star. Alonso had been the favourite to replace Jurgen Klopp but he recently announced that he will stick with Bayer Leverkusen for at least one more season. The Spaniard is working wonders at Leverkusen as his team is unbeaten this season across all competitions and 13 points clear of Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga table.
Several Leverkusen players are superstars in the making and their form this season has fuelled reports linking them with a summer move elsewhere. Florian Wirtz is arguably Leverkusen's best player as the 20-year-old has emerged as one of the standout young attacking talents in Europe. The 20-year-old has 11 goals and 17 assists in his 37 appearances this term across all competitions. Liverpool and Man City both believe their plans to land Wirtz are set to be impacted by Alonso's decision to stay at Bayer Leverkusen
