This comes hours after frontrunner and Bayer Leverkusen boss <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/xabi-alonso-decision-rejects-bayern-munich-liverpool-bayer-leverkusen-stay/blt3f58b772b9b209a9" target="_blank">Xabi Alonso said he was staying put at the Bundesliga outfit</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Alonso's decision to stay at Leverkusen - who are top of the Bundesliga - has sent shockwaves around the footballing world. Both Bayern and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/liverpool-boss-jurgen-klopp-bayern-munich-rejection-xabi-alonso-anfield/blt9b9bd8608587921e" target="_blank">Liverpool saw him as their number one target</a> but his act of loyalty means the two European giants will have to look elsewhere.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Zidane, who managed Real Madrid between 2016-18 and 2019-21, won La Liga on two occasions and the Champions League three times as Los Blancos' manager but it seems his time away from the dugout is set to continue.

DID YOU KNOW?

While speculation continues to mount over who will replace Tuchel this summer, his second-placed Bayern side host Borussia Dortmund on Saturday evening, with Alonso's Leverkusen entertaining Hoffenheim earlier on in the afternoon.
