The sale at Bayer Leverkusen continues. After the dethroned master Xabi Alonso, Jeremie Frimpong and Jonathan Tah has already lost and Florian Wirtz will soon be released, a farewell to midfield engine Granit Xhaka is now more and more indicated.
The “Blick” newspaper reports on the approaching Bavarian-Aus of the Swiss international on Tuesday. There is talk of “well -taught circles” that arise from a “promptly” farewell from the player from Leverkusen.
According to the report, talks are already underway behind the scenes about the conditions of the Bundesliga club to let the midfielder go this summer. The discussions are necessary because Xhaka’s contract at the factory club runs until 2028. However, the 32-year-old obviously does not intend to stay with the dethroned master until the end of his contract.
Sale of Bayer Leverkusen continues
According to the “Blick”, there are already several clubs that show interest in an Xhaka obligation. However, the report does not show which clubs it is. It is therefore only clear that the veteran will not return to his youth club FC Basel in summer. A change back to his sporting roots is currently out of the question, it is said.
If Xhaka also left the Leverkuseners, the club would lose the next important building block of its double team. Trainer Xabi Alonso has already joined Real Madrid, defense chief Jonathan Tah the FC Bayern and right -back Jeremie Frimpong at Liverpool.
Florian Wirtz also indicated another painful loss. The German exceptional player is also on the way to the English master from Liverpool. The transfer will be carried out in the coming days.
Xhaka could become the fifth key figure of the Double Year, which breaks off her tents on the Rhine.
