Malik Tillman, a 23-year-old attacking midfielder from the United States, is contemplating a transfer away from Bayer Leverkusen after less than a year with the club. He has expressed frustration regarding his limited playing time under head coach Kasper Hjulmand. Reports indicate that Fulham FC and Brentford FC, both of which showed interest in him last summer, are keen to acquire Tillman and are prepared to match the €35 million ($37 million USD) fee that Leverkusen paid to sign him from PSV Eindhoven. Despite the interest from the Premier League clubs, Leverkusen's management still believes in Tillman's potential and is reluctant to let him go. However, if Hjulmand remains as head coach, Tillman may seek a transfer after the upcoming World Cup.
