Bundesliga: Xavi Turns Down Bayer Leverkusen’s Offer

At 45 years old, the Spanish coach declined the Bundesliga club’s approach, explaining that he does not wish to return to the dugout for the moment.

Bayer Leverkusen is experiencing a period of instability following the dismissal of Erik ten Hag on Monday, just two months after his appointment. The Dutchman, who arrived on July 1, only managed two league matches: a defeat to Hoffenheim and a spectacular 3-3 draw with Werder Bremen.

After two rounds, the Rhineland club sits 12th in the Bundesliga table with just one point.
