Alonso to return to Anfield?

Liverpool are weighing up a return for their former star Xabi Alonso. It has been quite an intriguing rumor for Liverpool fans as former star midfielder Xabi Alonso is rumored to be on his way to return to Anfield. The rumors spring upped after reports claimed that Real Madrid are preparing to offload Xabi Alonso to make a way for new arrivals. Real Madrid brought in some midfielders Toni Kroos from Bayern Munich and James Rodriguez from Monaco, after both of them enjoyed impressive campaign in World Cup Brazil. The arrival of the midfielders has made the squad crowded and therefore could tempt Real Madrid to offload some midfielders. Real Madrid has already signaled their intention to let Argentina international Di Maria go after Rodriguez was signed for his place. Similarly, Real are currently embroiled in the contract rift with German midfielder Sami Khedira but as the player now seemingly prepared to see out his contract at the club, Ancelotti’s side could sell Alonso to make space for another signing Toni Kroos. Should Real let Alonso go, Liverpool are tipped to be favorites to snap up him for the Anfield side being Alonso’s former club. Alonso was a considerable figure in the Reds team that won Champions League at Istanbul dramatically, back in 2005. The Spanish international has been an influential performer for Real as well, winning La Liga with the club back in 2011/12, though he sat out last season’s Champions League final victory over Atletico Madrid due to suspension.
