"Yes I’m sure," Bayer Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes told SPORT1 when asked if Xabi Alonso would stay there beyond this summer.
"One [of the reasons] is the contracts. The other thing is how comfortable he feels, the family, himself and that he knows what he has in the club.
"He also has a very good team, we will have a very good perspective next year and there is no change in the team.
"We will definitely have a top team available next year. These are all points that, in addition to contracts, coaches like Xabi but also players who arouse interest from other clubs often stay with us."
Alonso is leading Bayer Leverkusen to what would be their first Bundesliga title ever — and their chances have significantly increased after a 3-0 win over Bayern Munich.
However, he's likely to be tempted by at least one bigger club as Liverpool are preparing for life after Jurgen Klopp.
