Will Nadiem Amiri (27) change this season?
Leverkusen’s midfielder is being sought following once more. As in the summer, the French top club Olympique Marseille is pursuing the former national player (5 DFB appearances) – and wants him immediately! Amiri had already reached an agreement with Marseille in August. The transfer negotiations with Bayer were also advanced. Around six million euros should have flowed.

After the traditional club failed to qualify for the Champions League, the club lacked the money for Amiri. Transfer failed. Now the second attempt.
But Marseille is not alone in the race for Amiri, who was mostly a substitute for Xabi Alonso (42) during the first half of the season. Olympique Lyon is also trying to get the technician, whom Leverkusen signed from Hoffenheim in 2019 for nine million euros.

Amiri is open to a new start. In Leverkusen he never took off as hoped. Only: In contrast to the summer, when Bayer would have liked to give him away, there is now a sales ban for the league leaders. Sports director Simon Rolfes (40) tells BILD: “We don’t give away any players in winter.”
Amiri made seven short appearances for Bayer in the first half of the season – he only played 14 minutes in the Bundesliga.

The reason for this is the suspension for the Africa Cup. Up to five players (Adli, Tapsoba, Boniface, Kossounou, Tella) are missing at the start of the year. The associations of all participants must nominate their players by January 3rd. In addition, the factory club has very good chances of winning the championship this season and the team should therefore not be weakened.
On the contrary: Rolfes and Alonso are looking for candidates who might strengthen the team, especially at the beginning of the year.
