Softfootball understands that Bayer Leverkusen have completed an agreement to sign Miguel Gutiérrez from Napoli after the Serie A club accepted a €30 million offer for the Spanish defender.
The 25-year-old is set to become Bayer Leverkusen’s new first-choice left-back, replacing Alejandro Grimaldo as the Bundesliga side continues reshaping its squad ahead of the new season.
Napoli’s decision to accept Bayer Leverkusen’s proposal represents smart business, allowing the club to generate a significant profit after just one season while creating room for further squad adjustments during the summer transfer window.
For Bayer Leverkusen, the signing reinforces their commitment to maintaining an attack-minded defensive unit capable of supporting the team’s aggressive tactical approach. The move also underlines the German club’s proactive recruitment strategy as they prepare for another campaign competing for major domestic honours and success in European competition.
With the agreement now in place, Gutiérrez is expected to complete the remaining formalities before being officially unveiled as Bayer Leverkusen’s newest signing in the coming days.
