Former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso is one of the leading candidates to become Pep Guardiola's new assistant at Manchester City.
Guardiola is still on the lookout for a new assistant to replace Mikel Arteta, who left to become Arsenal head coach in December last year.
City are set to appoint Arteta's replacement this summer and, as reported by goal, Alonso is under consideration, with the Spaniard having played under Guardiola at Bayern Munich.

Rodolfo Borrell, who is already part of City's coaching staff, is another potential option, but the likelihood is that the club will look for an external appointment.
