Dodi Lukebakio, currently playing for FC Sevilla and formerly of Düsseldorf, Hertha BSC, and Wolfsburg, is considered part of the extended candidate list for Bayer 04 Leverkusen. He is not the primary offensive target with whom Leverkusen is already in advanced discussions.

Dodi Lukebakio, excelling at Sevilla in La Liga, is attracting interest from top clubs, including Bayer Leverkusen. The Belgian forward, known for his Bundesliga stint with 35 goals and 23 assists in 144 matches, transferred to Sevilla from Hertha BSC for 10 million euros. Currently valued at 12 million euros, his actual worth is higher due to stellar performances. Under contract until 2028, Leverkusen may need to offer at least 20 million euros for his transfer.

Dodi Lukébakio has drawn interest from Bayer Leverkusen following his impressive performance at Sevilla, where he netted six goals in the first 15 La Liga matches. Bayer Leverkusen, recognized for their focus on emerging talent, is contemplating making an offer during the upcoming winter transfer window. The chance to play for a prestigious German club that competes in European competitions is appealing to Lukébakio, who is currently at the peak of his career at 27. Although Sevilla could benefit financially from selling Lukébakio, they face the challenge of losing their main offensive player mid-season.
