Joël Matip set to join Bayer Leverkusen following Historic Bundesliga triumph
Bayer Leverkusen is set to make a significant addition to its squad with the anticipated signing of Joël Matip.
Following a historic Bundesliga season that saw the club secure its first league title in 120 years and finish unbeaten, Leverkusen is looking to bolster its defense for the upcoming challenges.
The arrival of Matip, the experienced Cameroon international, comes as the club prepares for life without Jonathan Tah, who is expected to move to Bayern Munich.
With Tah’s departure imminent, Leverkusen has identified Matip as a key target to fill the defensive gap.
Matip, who has recently left Liverpool after eight successful seasons, is poised to return to Germany where his football journey began with VfL Bochum and Schalke Gelsenkirchen.
The 32-year-old, who is a free agent this summer, brings a wealth of experience from his time at Liverpool, where he won the Premier League, the Champions League, and the UEFA Super Cup.
His addition to the Leverkusen squad is expected to strengthen their defense as they aim to build on their historic success and make a mark in the Champions League.
