Bayer Leverkusen have signed Facundo Medina from Olympique Marseille. The club has reached a full agreement. The transfer fee for the 27-year-old defender is €20 million. Medina is set to sign a contract until 2031, with his medical check now scheduled.
The 27-year-old Argentine is an experienced centre-back who impressed at Olympique Marseille last season. With his defensive strength and football intelligence, he is expected to bolster Bayer Leverkusen's defence. The club finished 6th in the Bundesliga last season with 59 points (17W-8D-9L) and a goal difference of +21 (68 scored, 47 conceded).
Medina brings experience and stability to Leverkusen's defence. With a 30-point gap to leaders Bayern Munich in the title race, the club is looking for reinforcements to be more competitive next season. The last match of the season, a 1-1 draw against Hamburger SV (2026-05-16), shows that the team still has potential.
After passing his medical, Medina will be officially presented as a Bayer Leverkusen player. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see how the Argentine will fit into the team. The club's recent form (1W-2D-2L) gives hope that Medina will have a positive impact.
