According to Sky Germany, Leverkusen sporting managing director Simon Rolfes and director of professional football Kim Falkenberg flew to Berlin last week for talks with the 16-year-old’s representatives.
Should Die Werkself succeed in signing the teenager, their plan is to send him out on loan for the 2026/27 season – possibly back to Hertha BSC – according to Bild.
Leverkusen are just one of many top European clubs circling the German youth international, who is available via a release clause of around €12 million.
Bayern Munich, RB Leipzig, Borussia Dortmund, FC Barcelona and Manchester United, among others, have also been mentioned as suitors.
