Spain legend Xabi Alonso has confirmed his commitment to Bayer Leverkusen.

The former midfielder, who played for Liverpool, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, and Bayern Munich, is excelling as a head coach in Germany.

Alonso was linked to Tottenham this summer, but the Spanish manager appears to be committed to Leverkusen.

"I'm happy here with the team and the club," Alonso told BILD.

“I'm not worried about my future."

Asked if he would be in charge next term, Alonso added: “That's correct."
