It is believed that the two clubs have agreed a £12 million fee for the Spanish international. Alonso has failed to produce anything like his best form this season and this has led to intense speculation over his future.
The 26-year old has been with Liverpool for over four seasons now since joining from Spanish side Real Sociedad. He has made over 100 appearances for the club scoring just over a dozen goals in the process.
It would be sad to see Alonso leave the Premier League because for the past few years he has put in some memorable performances for Rafa Benitez' men. This season hasn't been quite the same with Javier Mascherano keeping him out of the team but he still remains a quality player.
