Bayer Leverkusen sets the price for Edmond Tapsoba. The 27-year-old Burkinian centre-back is still linked with European top clubs who want to strengthen their defence. His consistent performances in the Bundesliga, his skills in building up the game and his physical dominance have made him one of the most discussed centre-backs on the transfer market.
Tapsoba is a modern centre-back with a height of 1.94 meters. His high passing accuracy, his calmness under pressure and his good positional play even in wider spaces make it possible for him to convince in both a four-man and a three-man defence.
Leverkusen's evaluation of 50 million euros for a transfer increases the hurdle, but if a Premier League club submits an official written offer, a transfer seems realistic. In the coming weeks, further developments in the transfer saga around Tapsoba are expected.
Bayer Leverkusen is currently in 6th place in the Bundesliga with 59 points. The team has won 17 games, drawn 8 and lost 9 in the last season. In the current season, the team has scored 68 goals and conceded 47. The team is 30 points behind the leaders of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich.
Bayer Leverkusen will face SV Elversberg in the next week. The match will take place on August 29, 2026.
