It looks like Bayer Leverkusen star Jonathan Tah is going to be leaving the Bundesliga side when his contract expires at the end of the 2024/25 season.
The German international is now in his 10th season at the BayArena, and he played a big part in their first-ever Bundesliga title win in 2023/24.
However, with talks on a possible extension not going anywhere, other exit options across Europe have emerged.
The latest word is that Barcelona are the frontrunners to sign the 28-year-old on a free transfer, with negotiations set to start in January.
Barcelona won't be alone in their interest in Tah, but a move for the experienced defender fits their transfer profile: they're cost-effective and versatile.
Even though it seems like Tah has already made up his mind, Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso moved to put an end to the speculation. He said that no decision has been reached yet.
“We are happy Tah is with us this season. I’m not worried about the situation at the moment,” as per quotes from Marca.
“We’re happy Jona is with us. His attitude is top notch, he’s a big influence on our game. We’ll need him until the last day. Then we’ll see what happens in the future. ”
Tah still has a €30m release in his contract which Bayern Munich declined to pay in the summer.
