With his Real Madrid future up in the air, Xabi Alonso might be on his way back to England, but as the Daily Mail has revealed, it might be destination Stamford Bridge rather than Anfield.
Speculation is rife about Jose Mourinho’s next destination, with a return to the Blues expected, dropping a hint after Tuesday’s Champions League exit at the hands of Borussia Dortmund, claiming he wants to go somewhere where ‘he is loved.’
If Mourinho does return to west London, he has identified Alonso (pictured) as a target to take with him from the Bernabeu.
