Erik Ten Hag, the former Manchester United head coach, has reportedly finalized a provisional agreement to take over as Bayer Leverkusen’s new manager following the exit of Xabi Alonso.
The update was shared by renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano through a post on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account on Saturday.
Romano disclosed that the Dutch coach has committed to a two-year deal with the Bundesliga side, with the contract running until June 2027.
This development signals that Ten Hag is poised to fill the managerial position left vacant by Xabi Alonso, who is anticipated to take up the head coach role at Real Madrid.
“The agreement in principle between Erik ten Hag and Bayer Leverkusen is valid for two years, as revealed yesterday,” Romano posted.
“Contract until June 2027, total priority from ETH to the Bayer04 project… now waiting to get it sealed on the club side.”
Bayer Leverkusen wrapped up the recent Bundesliga season in second place, finishing just behind league winners Bayern Munich.
The upcoming season now presents a significant opportunity for the club to contend for the Bundesliga title under Ten Hag’s leadership.
