Leverkusen keen to entice a right wing-back and defensive midfielder, per Kicker

A right-sided wing-back and a defensive minded midfielder are listed as target areas.

Bayer Leverkusen’s third pending signing could be another player with an offensive profile for the right-wingback position, Kicker.de reports.

The club has just brought in Ernest Poku, but he is more of a promising young player than an established starter.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Nathan Tella are both also regarded as more back-up options as opposed to first team regulars.

However, the market is extremely complicated and if Leverkusen sign another wing-back, it will only be one who significantly raises the level.

If the desired right-wingback is not available, the Rhinelanders could instead turn attentions to another defensive minded No.6.

In this case, Leverkusen would only act if a special opportunity arose – and if they couldn’t find what they were looking for at right wing-back.
