Leverkusen Inquiry, Spurs Scenario Shape Goretzka’s Post-Bayern Future

A potential free move to Tottenham is reported to threaten Bayern’s chance to sell João Palhinha this summer.

  • Sport Bild, via SPORT1, reports Bayer Leverkusen have asked Goretzka’s agents about a possible deal, with no meeting held so far.
  • Reporting indicates Goretzka prefers a move abroad, with the Premier League viewed as the most likely destination.
