Diego Simeone targets €70m Bundesliga sensation Ibrahim Maza as Atletico Madrid prepare ambitious transfer raid
To ward off Atletico and the looming Premier League threat, Leverkusen are taking proactive steps. Reports from Bild suggest the German club are already working intensely on a contract extension that would tie Maza down well beyond his current 2030 expiry date.
Initial talks with the player’s representatives began last week, though an official agreement has yet to be reached. Leverkusen’s primary goal is to retain their midfield maestro by offering significant financial incentives to convince him to stay.
The proposed deal will include a substantial salary increase. This would serve as a major financial boost, building significantly upon the €3 million per season he currently earns in Germany.
