Liverpool legend Xabi Alonso is set to pick Bayern Munich over the Merseysiders, in a huge blow to the Premier League giants.
Alonso played at Anfield for five years and is widely thought to be the first-choice option to succeed Jurgen Klopp in the dugout, when the German steps aside after nine years in the role this summer. The Spaniard is currently top of the Bundesliga, with Bayern Munich in second.
