Mohamed Amoura’s exceptional performances in the Bundesliga have placed him firmly on the radar of some of Germany’s top clubs.
The Algerian forward, who has been a key figure for Wolfsburg this season, is now reportedly a prime target for reigning Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen.
Leverkusen’s interest heats up
According to German media outlet Wolfsburger Allgemeine Zeitung, Leverkusen, managed by Xabi Alonso, is keen to secure Amoura’s services during the upcoming summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old striker has made a significant impact at Wolfsburg, prompting the club to exercise its €14.5 million purchase option from Union Saint-Gilloise.
However, with Leverkusen now expressing serious interest, Wolfsburg may soon be faced with a lucrative decision.
Amoura’s performances this season have been nothing short of impressive.
With nine goals and eight assists in the league, his attacking prowess has not only boosted Wolfsburg’s campaign but also increased his market value to approximately €22 million.
Reports suggest that Leverkusen is prepared to make a substantial offer, potentially in the region of €50 million, to secure his signature.
Wolfsburg’s dilemma: Cash in or hold on?
For Wolfsburg, Amoura’s situation presents a major financial opportunity.
Having just signed him permanently, the club could turn an immediate and significant profit if they choose to negotiate a sale.
However, selling too soon could mean missing out on the further development of a player who has the potential to become even more valuable.
Other Bundesliga clubs, including Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt, are also monitoring Amoura, which could intensify competition for his transfer and drive up the price.
A tactical fit for Xabi Alonso’s system
If Amoura were to make the move to Leverkusen, he would be stepping into a dynamic attacking setup under Xabi Alonso.
The Spanish coach has built a fluid and aggressive style of play, which would suit Amoura’s strengths—his speed, dribbling ability, and clinical finishing.
His versatility would make him a valuable asset in multiple attacking roles, whether as a winger or a central forward.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Wolfsburg must decide whether to cash in on their emerging star or retain him for further growth.
Meanwhile, Leverkusen appears determined to reinforce their squad with one of the Bundesliga’s most exciting attacking talents.
