Bayer Leverkusen might not be one of the top teams in the world, let alone Germany. However, that doesn’t mean talented players don’t transfer here or come through their academy ranks.
The team competes with the likes of Bayern Munich and Stuttgart to win the Bundesliga in Germany, but often falls short. However, they have a huge squad with tons of depth that attracts attention from teams all over the globe.
One of the main players for Bayer Leverkusen has found himself in potential transfer talks to some of the most elite teams in the world, such as Barcelona FC in La Liga in Spain, Liverpool FC in the English Premier league, and Paris Saint Germain in Ligue 1 in France.
Bayer Leverkusen Player Transfer News
Despite what everyone projected going into the season, this was Bayer Leverkusen’s best Bundesliga season. Everyone had eyes on Bayern Munich, with Harry Kane, the top goal scorer, and Stuttgart, who came in a close second place. People even thought that Borussia Dortmund would contend for the top spot in the domestic league, but they only made it to the Champions League final.
Nobody saw Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the league, but that is where they ended up. Despite Bayern Munich having the likes of ex-Tottenham striker Harry Kane and defender Kimmich on hefty salaries, Leverkusen was the one who was able to topple the rest of the teams and win the 2023-2024 Bundesliga season with apparent ease.
Now, one of their star players is reaping the benefits of getting a ton of minutes, making an impact, and playing well for his club.
23-year-old Frimpong is coming off of a fantastic season with Bayer Leverkusen, having won the league, playing thousands of minutes during the year, and being an energetic force during every game. Over the last few days, the Bayer Leverkusen player has attracted interest from some of the top clubs in the world, including Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Real Madrid.
He has his choice of which team he goes to, but he claims that he is not interested in leaving the club – supposedly.
‘It’s just rumors. I don’t read rumors!’
HE was amended to say that he is not looking elsewhere for the next season, but with his insane stats, it would seem odd for him not to go to a different club at a higher level. Frimpong played in 47 matches in all competitions for Bayer Leverkusen, scoring fourteen goals for his club and adding twelve assists for his teammates.
Bayer Leverkusen Looking Forward
Bayer Leverkusen ran rampant in the Bundesliga this past season, winning the league and wiping out teams with huge victories. Their last game against Eintracht Frankfurt saw a 5-1 win, with their previous domestic league game an impressive showing with another five goals against VFL Bochum.
They lost in the Europa League final to Atalanta in May, which was a surprise, but besides that, they had a winners-take-all year. They beat Roma in the Europa League semi-final to make it to that stage, winning their first game and earning a draw in their second match.
Now, they look to keep some of their key players and do the same as last season. Bayer Leverkusen will hope to retain Florian Witz in the midfield, Frimpong in the defensive line, Xhaka as the pivotal #6 holding midfielder, Boniface as the goal-scoring striker, and Hradecky as the man between the sticks.
