Bayer Leverkusen is among the few Bundesliga clubs capable of affording Julian Brandt's salary. Nevertheless, given his recent performances, they might not consider him an asset. Julian Brandt, who previously transferred from Bayer Leverkusen to Borussia Dortmund with high expectations that were not met, is expected to leave Dortmund a year before his contract expires. While a return to Leverkusen is financially possible, his recent form makes this an unlikely option for reinforcement, particularly as Leverkusen, along with Bayern Munich and Leipzig, do not regard him as a valuable addition. Additionally, since Brandt is a dedicated fan of Werder Bremen, the prospect of him moving there is also unlikely due to the substantial salary reduction it would require.
