After several long days of discussions, Chelsea are on the verge of finalizing the arrival of Xabi Alonso on their bench. According to the English press and information from Fabrizio Romanoa total agreement would have been found between the different parties: Alonso would have even already signed a long-term contract which would commit him until 2030. The formalization would only be a matter of hours, while the Spanish technician is already expected to get involved in decisions linked to the transfer window.
After his mixed stint at Real Madrid, marked by a shortened experience, Xabi Alonso is preparing to bounce back in a new major project in the Premier League. If he will return to a championship that he knows perfectly and an ambitious club like Chelsea, his historic attachment to Liverpool remains in people’s minds, he who marked an important stage in his playing career there. A strong choice, which despite everything confirms its desire to be part of a very high level project in England.
