Saudi offer looms for Bayer Leverkusen veteran Jonas Hofmann

Bayer Leverkusen veteran Jonas Hofmann, 34, has reportedly received a concrete Saudi offer that could see him depart before the transfer window closes. The 34‑year‑old offensive midfielder, who is under contract until 2027, is being linked with Al Shabab as Bayer Leverkusen signal his playing time will be limited next season.

Al Shabab's proposal

According to , Al Shabab have presented a lucrative offer to the German national player. The Saudi club is said to be eager to secure Hofmann’s services.

Leverkusen's stance and options
