Liverpool has been actively seeking defensive reinforcements, especially after Joel Matip's ACL injury, which is expected to keep him out for the rest of the season.
Despite being a regular in the previous season, Hincapie has struggled to secure a consistent spot in Alonso's current defensive lineup, where Jonathan Tah, Edmond Tapsoba, and Odilon Kossounou feature prominently.
According to reports from Kicker, Alonso, who has a history with Liverpool from his playing career, has made it clear that he won't allow Hincapie to join Liverpool in January. This decision comes as Bayer Leverkusen is in the midst of a title challenge in the Bundesliga, currently leading the standings with a four-point advantage over Bayern Munich and maintaining an unbeaten record after 16 league matches this season.
Additionally, Alonso is expected to resist Chelsea's plans for a January move for Hincapie's defensive partner, Jonathan Tah.
Although Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League standings, they have faced various injury setbacks this season, including the absence of both left-backs Andrew Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas. Hincapie is seen as an ideal candidate for Liverpool due to his versatility, being equally adept at playing both as a center-back and in a full-back role.
