Leverkusen ‘to offload’ at least one central midfielder this summer | OneFootball

Bayer Leverkusen could move on at least one central midfielder this summer, with Kicker reporting the club will offload at least one defensive midfielder before the 2026-27 campaign.

Exequiel Palacios is regarded as the most secure starter in the role based on his profile.

Equi Fernández is viewed as the leading candidate for a sale in midfield. His refusal to come on in the final minute of the 1-0 win in Dortmund, a time-wasting switch, has harmed his standing.

Aleix Garcia could also become a transfer option, likely only if a lucrative offer arrives for the Spaniard.

It is unclear how Tillman’s situation, having been determined to leave under Hjulmand, will develop under new head coach Martinez. Premier League clubs such as Fulham are showing interest in the USA international, and a sale cannot be ruled out if the price is right.
