Bye X, hopefully see you one day soon

Lucas Vázquez: "Yes, Dani [Carvajal] was here 12, I think 12 or 13 years ago, and he recommended it to me because he had been very happy here, both on a sporting and personal level, and said that if I could choose this option, I shouldn't let it slip away."

Manuel Akanji was a topic, but he will NOT join Bayer Leverkusen.

Comunicado Oficial.

[WerkselfXtra @bayer04Xtra]

Bayer Leverkusen's first written offer for Jonathan Clauss was €4m, the second €6.25m, but they were insufficient. A third and final verbal €7.5m offer was made to OGC Nice, but negotiations ended there - B04 spent a month trying to convince them.

West Ham United have renewed their interest in Aleix García.

Hopefully this free transfer frees up even more money for elsewhere...

Another overview for another busy day👇

🇪🇨 Piero Hincapié:
@FabrizioRomano: Spurs had a loan bid including an obligation to buy of around €60m for Piero Hincapé rejected by B04 - the player also rather wants Arsenal, B04 are fighting to keep him

ℹ️ Spurs interest was denied by several English journalists

@David_Ornstein/@FabrizioRomano: Arsenal want Hincapié but do not want to activate the €60m clause, are exploring different solutions

@youri711: Bayer Leverkusen could agree to a loan deal with an obligation to buy for Hincapié since it would be beneficial from an accounting standpoint

@Plettigoal: B04 are insisting on the €60m clause at the moment

@JacobsBen: Hincapié has asked to leave for around €45m, he wants to push for a departure

@kicker: the release clause is worth €65m at this point in the window - no confirmation for @JacobsBen's report above

🇨🇭 Manuel Akanji:
@youri711/@FabrizioRomano: Manuel Akanji is a possible replacement for Hincapié

@FabrizioRomano: ManCity accepted a £15m (~€17.5m) bid from Galatasaray, but there's no green light from the player

@LianosKostas: Crystal Palace made an official bid for Akanji (£15m including bonuses)

🇦🇷 Equi Fernández:
@berger_pj: €25m plus add-ons offer for Equi Fernández submitted, clubs are now discussing details, personal terms agreed

@FabrizioRomano: new €30m offer for Equi Fernández, no add-ons, and 15% of the future profit from a transfer - talks ongoing, Equi wants to join

@ban_hfc: Al Qadsiah are interested in signing N'Golo Kanté - possible replacement?

🇪🇸 Aleix García:
@berger_pj: it's possible that Aleix García leaves if Equi is signed, there's interest from Spain and across Europe

🇫🇷 Jonathan Clauss/new right wingback:
@youri711/@kicker: Jonathan Clauss deal is off due to Nice's asking price

@kicker: the signing of another right wingback is imminent

🇲🇦 Eliesse Ben Seghir:

@youri711: negotiations regarding a fee of around €25m are ongoing

🇧🇷 Arthur:
@lequipe/@youri711: Paris FC are interested in Arthur

🤕 injury/squad updates:
@youri711: Palacios, Hofmann and Tillman are expected to be in the squad against Werder Bremen on Saturday, one or two new signings could be too

♥️ Loïc Badé was at the Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium today to say goodbye to the Sevilla FC fans

[WerkselfXtra @bayer04Xtra]

CONFIRMED: Manuel Akanji could be an option for Bayer Leverkusen should Piero Hincapé leave the club.

ManCity accepted a £15m (~€17.5m) bid from Galatasaray, but there's no green light from the player for that move.

[@FabrizioRomano]

[⚫Alexander Silk🔴 @B04Alex]

@bayer04Xtra @FabrizioRomano @bayer04_en That's very good value for a player of his class and experience

[WerkselfXtra @bayer04Xtra]

CONFIRMED: Arthur could still leave the club - Paris FC have expressed interest in him.

[@youri711, @KSTA]

[WerkselfXtra @bayer04Xtra]

BREAKING: Bayer Leverkusen have submitted a new €25m plus add-ons offer for Equi Fernández in the last hours - the total amount is just under €30m.

Al Qadsiah and B04 are now negotiating details. Agreement with the player is in place on a long term contract.

[@berger_pj]

[WerkselfXtra @bayer04Xtra]

Arsenal are currently the most concrete option for Piero Hincapié. At this late stage in the window, his release clause is €65m.

Arsenal must pay the contractually agreed fee for the deal to go ahead - a scenario in which they push down the fee must be ruled out from B04's point of view as it would be extremely risky from a sporting perspective to make the upheaval even bigger.
