Bayern Munich have announced they are on the verge of completing a deal with Real Madrid for the transfer of Xabi Alonso, with the former Spain international travelling to Germany on Thursday to undergo his medical.
The Bundesliga champions were keen to add an extra midfielder to their squad due to the ongoing injury problems of players such as Javi Martinez, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thiago Alcantara and they see the 32-year-old Alonso as a valuable addition.
Wow, out of the blue that.
Good signing for Bayern.
Great player, just getting old, but still a legend. Thanks for the memories.
whaat? that's confusing with the list of players willing to go to bayern, they picked xabi?
great player but you can't deny age forever, especially for a midfielder... in bundesliga!
he'll bond great with Pepe Reina
