Alex Meret, who is currently with Napoli, is being considered as a potential low-cost solution by Bayer Leverkusen. With his contract at Napoli set to expire at the end of the season, he has become an attractive option for the club. Leverkusen, in their pursuit of a new goalkeeper, views Meret as a bargain choice as they prepare for the upcoming season. As their current captain Lukas Hradecky is anticipated to take a backseat and Matej Kovar is set to depart, Meret's availability on a free transfer fits well with Leverkusen's strategic plans to strengthen their squad without incurring a significant financial burden.
