Both Liverpool and Germany can’t get enough of XABI ALONSO.
It is unusual for a new coach to make such an impact and win a title in the world of football as Xabi Alonso did.
Alonso is quickly rising to the status of one of the most intriguing cases in history after winning the Bundesliga championship with Bayer Leverkusen this season.

Consider, however, the individual who does not play football.
With this, they are now in a good position to win the Bundesliga for the first time in their 120-year history.
As a coach, Alonso has become well-known for his exciting and fresh take on the game of football.
Given the abundance of other candidates, it is unclear if he will succeed Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool’s manager.
But where does he stand when not at the pitch or in front of the tactics board?
Betrayed lovers
The spouse of Alonso is Nagore Aranburu.
They tied the knot in 2009, only one month before Alonso transferred from Liverpool to Real Madrid.
While Alonso was still a teenager, they became friends while playing for Real Sociedad, his boyhood club.
Jontxe was born in 2008, Ane in 2010, and Emma in 2013. Alonso and Nagore were married for a long time.

They went to Real Sociedad together when Alonso was a little boy.
Modeling, acting, and fashion design are some of Nagore’s previous careers.
While working as a hotel receptionist in Liverpool, though, she heard one particularly funny story.
Ex-Reds star and current Alonso teammate Peter Crouch remembered their first encounter.
Crouch told his Liverpool teammates, notably Jamie Carragher, that he fell in love with Nagore the moment they met, but he later found out that she was seeing Alonso.
“I stayed at the Hope Street Hotel on signing for Liverpool,” he added.
I couldn’t believe the attractive girl who was always beaming at me at reception.
The couple have three children together
Day trips have always been a priority for them, even though they both have demanding job schedules.
“Honestly, she’s beautiful. I think I’ve got a shout here,” I told the men in training. Jamie Carragher summoned a handful of his more seasoned teammates and said, “Tell them again, Crouchie.”
Great, I thought, so I did. Rich in locks. appears to be of Spanish descent. I am within. She was actually Xabi Alonso’s partner, as it proved out.
She was putting in some time to hone her linguistic abilities. He handled it with grace. She, too, was. Carra is not as
Alonso and Nagore have managed to fit quality time together despite their hectic schedules.
During their time at Bayern Munich, Alonso and Nagore were common sights during the Oktoberfest festivities.
They were seen strolling along the beach on a family vacation to California after Alonso retired from sports in 2017.
Alonso has also said that the couple enjoys taking family outings to museums and mountain drives.

Gasheads and models
Whenever Alonso is shown in a vehicle, it is one with a sophisticated design. This could be a reflection of his exquisite playing style.
He also has a similar sense of style.
Alonso has posted several photos to Instagram in which he is seen driving various vintage beamers, demonstrating his passion for the sport.
As part of the unveiling of Porsche Design Sport SS17 and Adidas’ apparel line, Alonso posed for the automaker in Munich.

However, when going to training he would drive a rather inconspicuous Audi, rather than his classic Mercedes 190 SL convertible.
Cost estimates for that car today put it between £70,000 to £166,000.
Alonso, who has been compared to James Bond, is spotted in an interview with Mr. Porter, casually driving a Porsche 356, looking very dapper.
The thought of getting tattoos is something that Alonso simply cannot tolerate.
Their pals are aware that they are completely outmatched when it comes to me, Alonso stated in an interview with Sueddeutsche Zeitung in 2016.
I want to clarify that I have no problem with tattoos in general. Maybe this looks awesome on other people.
However, it is not the case for me. Piercings, chains, or anything else would make me feel uneasy. Clearly, I’m utterly stuck in my past.

Special moments are like watch links
Despite his often suave appearance, Alonso is not one who often dresses to impress.
But when he does, he goes all out, and watches are the crown jewel of his wardrobe.
Alonso has likened special moments in his life and career to links in a watch.
He told The Journal: “For me, every special moment is bound to be linked to a particular watch, and whenever I put it on I’m transported back to that moment – such as when we won the Champions League with Liverpool or the World Cup with Spain.”

While in London with Nagora, Alonso proudly displays one of his numerous timepieces.
For fear of coming across as pompous, he does not feel particularly eager to showcase his watches from Panerai, Franck Muller, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, and Rolex.
The IWC Ingenieur, which Nagora gave him as a wedding present, is the most beloved and sentimental timepiece in his collection, according to Watches of Switzerland. The value is projected to be £10,500.
This breathtaking timepiece “represents the fact that I had found a woman who thought about me, about what I like, and my personality,” says Alonso of his new connection.
“Only on very special occasions do I wear it.”
In his opinion, IWC watches “have a certain sophistication without being flashy” and “are not overly showy, attention-grabbing watches,” which is why Alonso enjoys them.
What a man wears on his feet and the timepiece he wears is a reflection of his character, as the ancient adage goes.
It would appear that Alonso’s life is characterized by a relentless pursuit of elegant simplicity.
