Bayer Leverkusen striker Patrick Schick has been identified as a target for some of the English league's "big" clubs. But according to 90min sources, Leverkusen executives do not intend to give up their ace services easily.
Patrik Schick is one of the top scorers of Bundesliga this season, as he has scored 16 goals so far. Only Robert Lewandowski has more realizations (19), while Dortmund's Haaland has scored 13 goals but has spent a considerable period off the green field as a result of an injury.
Schick was one of the most prominent players of Euro 2020, closing the competition as the top scorer along with Cristiano Ronaldo. This has led Manchester City, Tottenham, Arsenal, West Ham and Everton to closely monitor the player's situation at the German club. Manchester United coach Ralf Rangnick is also a big fan of the player, as it was the Red Devils' coach who brought Schick closer to RB Leipzig, in his final year with the German team.
Schick has an active contract with Leverkusen until 2025. The Germans pay 20 million euros to receive the services of the striker from Rome, in 2020. The club's management is not in a hurry to sell his card, despite the potential benefit. This is because Leverkusen believe that they can benefit over 50 million pounds for Patrick's card, even in a second moment.
Unofficial sources have also managed to understand the reasons why Germans are skeptical of giving up their talent in January. Bayer Leverkusen is in the race to finish between the top 3 teams in the Bundesliga. At the same time, returning to the Champions League is already a tangible goal. This means that a possible departure of Schick, would seriously jeopardize the fulfillment of the objectives of the German club.
