Afonso Moreira joins Bayer 04 Leverkusen for €30 million
It is official: Afonso Moreira has been transferred from Olympique Lyon to Bayer 04 Leverkusen for a fee of €30 million, according to reports from Santi Aouna and Florian Plettenberg.
Afonso Moreira, the promising left winger from Olympique Lyon, has been confirmed as the new player of Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The news was initially reported by Santi Aouna, who indicated that the German club was very interested in the player and that negotiations were underway. Aouna later confirmed that Moreira had given his agreement to join the German team.
Born in 2005, Moreira stands out for his speed and one-on-one ability. Currently, his market value is €20 million, and his contract with Olympique Lyon was set to expire on June 30, 2029. His signing represents a great opportunity for Bayer Leverkusen, which seeks to strengthen its attack with a young and talented player.
The deal has been closed for a fee of €30 million, and it has been confirmed that the player has already arrived in Cologne to undergo a medical examination. This operation is key for Bayer Leverkusen, which aims to compete in the Bundesliga and European competitions. For Olympique Lyon, the sale of Moreira represents a significant financial boost, although they also lose a player with great potential.
In addition to Aouna, other journalists such as Nicolò Schira and Florian Plettenberg have corroborated the information, confirming that the agreement is definitive and that Moreira's contract extends until 2031. This highlights the confidence that Bayer Leverkusen has in the young player.
