Former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso has reacted to rumours linking him with the managerial jobs at Tottenham and Real Madrid.

According to talkSPORT, Alonso, currently Bayer Leverkusen boss, is under serious consideration to take over at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

But the former Spain international said that at this stage he believes he will still be at the Bundesliga club next season.

“I’ve been in football for many years, rumours are normal but we still have a lot to achieve,” Alonso said.

“That’s why my head is 100 per cent here for the last few months. And my head is also 100 percent here for next season.”
