Bayer Leverkusen shows great interest in defender Emmanuel Fernandez from Rangers. The 24-year-old Nigerian has been linked with Borussia Dortmund in the past, but now the Werkself could play a decisive role in the transfer poker. According to reports from 'Teamtalk', Bayer Leverkusen has refreshed contacts with Fernandez's camp and is ready to enter serious negotiations in the coming weeks. However, the competition for the player is fierce, with notable clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Everton also expressing interest. The Rangers reportedly demand at least £25 million for Fernandez, which is nearly €29 million. This could set a new transfer record for the Scottish club, as the previous highest sale was Calvin Bassey, who moved to Ajax Amsterdam for €23 million. Bayer Leverkusen could find itself in a good position to sign Fernandez despite the prominent competition. The player has made a name for himself in Glasgow, scoring six goals in 33 competitive matches. A transfer to Bayer Leverkusen could be highly beneficial for both the player and the club.
