For years, the biggest issue that Bayer Leverkusen have had is keeping a solid core together long enough to compete with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. They are already trying to keep Xabi Alonso away from the prying eyes of Real Madrid or Tottenham. Now, they’ve made a massive signing that will really help them compete with the bigger clubs.
