Alonso reveals he has no idea whether he will leave Liverpool

Alonso, who hopes to have played his way into the plans of Luis Aragones's Spain  side ahead of their Euro 2008 quarter-final clash against Italy in Vienna on Sunday, signed a five-year contract with Liverpool last summer.

But Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez is under pressure to sell Alonso having already offloaded John Arne Riise to Roma to help finance his bid to sign Gareth Barry from Aston Villa.

Future's up in the air: Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso.

“At the moment, I'm a Liverpool player and I am just focusing on the Euros,” Alonso said.

“You will have to ask Liverpool what is happening.

"I have four more years of my contract and my plans are to start next season with Liverpool unless there is a change.

"I can't really say any more. It's between the two clubs.”

The midfielder produced an outstanding display in Spain's 2-1 win over Greece on Thursday but is expecting a much tougher game against the Italians.

“It's going to be tough,” said Alonso. “It isn't the first time that Italy have struggled to get through the group.

"In 1982, they did the same in the World Cup in Spain and from then they were spectacular in the knockout stages.”
