Liverpool is uncertain about who to entrust with a multi-million pound project that hasn’t worked out. Xabi Alonso has been linked with the job for many weeks (Chelsea has also entered the picture), but they’re still undecided and are therefore inquiring about what happened at Real Madrid with the current manager.

Despite the tension a year ago over Trent, the relationship between the clubs is one of trust, hence the question posed to the Real Madrid management. They were seeking an endorsement of their decision. It’s like a kind of letter of recommendation from the business world.
