For Leverkusen, this signing represents more than just an addition to their squad. They are bringing in a seasoned winner, a player who has lifted multiple Champions League titles, La Liga trophies, and several domestic and international honors with Real Madrid. His experience, mentality, and winning DNA will undoubtedly raise the competitive spirit of Xabi Alonso’s team, who continue to grow in stature both domestically and in European competitions.
