Leverkusen: Bayer Leverkusen have appointed Erik ten Hag as the new head coach following Xabi Alonso’s decision to join Real Madrid. The Dutchman will start his tenure at Leverkusen on July 1 and has signed on for a two-year contract. The 55-year-old was sacked by Manchester United in October and now returns to European football with the 2024 Bundesliga winners.
“Bayer 04 are one of the best clubs in Germany and also among the top clubs in Europe. The club offers outstanding conditions, I’ve been very impressed with the discussions of the management. I’ve come to Leverkusen to continue with the ambition shown in recent years. It’s an attractive challenge to set up something together in this period of change and develop an ambitious team,” said the Dutchman. IANS
