Bayer Leverkusen Faces a Forgettable Season After Unprecedented Success
The 2023/2024 season witnessed unprecedented success for the German team Bayer Leverkusen under the leadership of Spanish coach Xabi Alonso.
Leverkusen managed to secure the DFB-Pokal, the Bundesliga, and the DFL-Supercup last season, while losing the UEFA Europa League final to Atalanta.
Everyone expected Leverkusen, under coach Alonso, to continue achieving success this season or at least to compete strongly for titles, but the German team is experiencing a very difficult season.
During this season, Leverkusen was eliminated in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League by Bayern Munich, while sitting 6 points behind Bayern in the Bundesliga with 7 rounds remaining in the season.
Leverkusen faced another shock on Tuesday after being knocked out of the DFB-Pokal semi-finals, losing 2-1 to Arminia Bielefeld, who play in the third division.
It is worth noting that Xabi Alonso's contract with Leverkusen runs until the summer of 2026, but the Spanish coach has been linked with a move to manage Real Madrid next season.
