According to Sports Boom, Bayer Leverkusen are aware of the growing interest in one of their top prospects, Francis Onyeka. Tottenham, Aston Villa and Leeds United are all interested in the German attacking prodigy, with Leverkusen set to evaluate his future based on how the situation in the market evolves.
Francis Onyeka is not a name that stands out compared to some other players in his age group who are playing in top divisions. Instead, the teenage German star is plying his trade with VfL Bochum in the second division in the country, but putting in some exceptional performances.
VfL Bochum only have him on loan for the current season, and he is certain to return to his parent club, Bayer Leverkusen, in the summer. Onyeka has eight goals and one assist to his name in the 2. The Bundesliga season has opened the doors for Premier League interest.
Tottenham, Aston Villa and Leeds United are the teams interested, while others are keeping tabs on his displays for Bochum. Those three teams are currently only monitoring his situation, as there are no reports of any enquiries or potential approaches at this moment.
Leverkusen are not keen on any sale and are hoping that Onyeka returns to realise his potential at the club. Contracted to the team until 2028, should the former champions consider a sale, it would take at least €30–35 million for suitors to test the waters.
Tottenham are probably the team with the best chance compared to the others, despite their ongoing relegation battle. Should they retain their top-flight status, the north Londoners will be in the mix for the €30–35 million-rated German attacking prodigy.
Leeds United are looking to bring him in for what he offers, as he could play the No. 10 role or even be developed into an eight. Aston Villa are probably the most attractive of the English sides, given they are certain to play in Europe next season. Any movement for the €30–35 million-rated German attacking prodigy will depend on Leverkusen’s stance, as they are not planning on parting ways on the cheap.
