The decision to stay was reached after careful consideration during the break, with Alonso emphasizing his satisfaction with the team's performance. "After a lot of talks about my future, I used the break to reflect and make my decision," he explained, highlighting his belief that Bayer Leverkusen is the ideal environment for his managerial career to flourish.
With Alonso's commitment secured, Bayer Leverkusen can now focus on their title pursuit with renewed confidence, knowing that they have the backing of their determined manager.
