Bayer Leverkusen chief executive Fernando Carro says he could envisage Julian Brandt returning to the BayArena this summer.

Brandt’s Borussia Dortmund contract will not be extended beyond the summer, and he left Leverkusen for Dortmund in 2019.

“You’ll have to ask Simon Rolfes about that. Simon Rolfes is responsible for squad planning; he’s our sporting managing director and the one who ultimately has to make the decision.” He told DAZN.

“I think Julian Brandt is sensational. If Simon wants him, I will definitely support it. But Simon has to set the direction.”

Whether Brandt would welcome a Leverkusen reunion remains unclear.

Sky Germany has previously reported that the attacking midfielder would prefer a move abroad rather than staying in Germany.
