Jonathan Tah will leave Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the season. Wherever the German international is going is still open. Not only Bayern has been associated with the central defender again and again in recent months.
The successful cooperation between Jonathan Tah and Bayer Leverkusen ends this summer. The 29-year-old confirmed his approaching farewell from the Rhineland after the 1-1 between the Werkelf and FC St. Pauli on Easter Sunday.
“Everything has been said from the start. There was a time when I made the decision not to extend my contract and not stay here. It remains now,” the official website of the Bundesliga quotes the DFB star from the Mixed Zone.
Tah’s working paper at Bayer Leverkusen expires, the defender can change accordingly free of charge. The veteran is said to have agreed with FC Bayern last summer. Does the German record champion now make you serious?
Rumors about Bayern and Co.
After the Munich quarter-finals in the Champions League, a defensive debate is again led around FC Bayern. “Sky” recently reported that the club would look for a new defense chief. In this context, the name Tah was not explicitly mentioned.
The still leverkusener has also been associated with other heavyweights such as FC Barcelona and Real Madrid in the past few months.
Tah has been playing for Bayer 04 since 2015. The central defender had switched from Hamburger SV to the Rhinelands at the time. In the previous season, Tah celebrated the double win with Leverkusen. In the current season, the Werkelf will probably remain without title. The gap to Bundesliga leader FC Bayern is four rounds before the end of the season. In the DFB Cup and in the Champions League, it is already over.
