Xabi Alonso insists nothing at all has changed at Bayern Munich in the wake of the Pep Guardiola announcement.

The Spaniard will leave the German giants at the end of the season to take the reins at Manchester City in what has been seen as a potentially disruptive decision for both clubs involved.

The fact the managerial change has been made public during a campaign is not normal in England but it has been done before in Europe, prompting Spanish midfielder Alonso to reveal that there has been no alterations to the normal Bayern behaviour since Guardiola made the call.

"In my eyes, the atmosphere in the squad is the same as before Christmas," Alonso told TZ.

"We know how football works and that there are many harassing the environment of a club like Bayern Munich.

"With us in the squad, however - and that is still what ultimately really matters - everything is as it always was."
