The former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso was asked about his days in county Meath when he came over as a teenager and the Bayer Leverkusen manager gave a lovely response.

What a job he has done at the German club and I’m sure tomorrow night he will be hoping to finish off the season in style with winning the Europa League. It’s going to make for a great occasion and you can be sure a lot of the Irish fans will be shouting for the Spanish International with his connection to Ireland. Could we see him one day managing Liverpool football club?
