Which season ! Certainly, this Europa League final lost to Atalanta spoiled this historic end of the year for Leverkusen, but that does not take anything away from the historic season achieved by Xabi Alonso’s men on the national scene. However, as is often the case during this type of epic, the German club risks being a victim of its success, and thus seeing big European clubs pounce on its best elements. For the moment, Xabi Alonso still knows that he will still be able to count on Florian Wirtz next year.
And it seems that management intends to spoil the Spaniard, so that his team can still be competitive when it resumes. As indicated by several German and Spanish media such as Sky Sports And Mundo DeportivoBayer Leverkusen has concluded the arrival of Aleix Garcia, the 26-year-old midfielder from Girona and also a Spanish international.
A nice transfer
A strong man and playing master of the Catalan team, the former Manchester City player already has an agreement with the winner of the Bundesliga, who for his part has found common ground with the sensation of the season in La Liga. Bayer will pay an amount of between 15 and 20 million euros for the player who will travel to Germany to play in the Euro with his selection.
Xabi Alonso managed to convince the Catalan, who has played 37 La Liga matches this season, providing 6 assists and scoring 3 goals. A nice blow for Leverkusen, since the player was coveted by other big clubs, like Barça and Atlético. And a big blow for Girona, who will have to find a new playmaker…
