Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno could possibly stay at the club beyond his loan spell, which ends on December 31. The goalkeeper was talking ahead of his club’s next league fixture against FC Nurnberg, which is set to be played on Saturday, September
17.
Leno is currently on-loan from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabian-Giefer-c13104.
The player landed at BayArena during the summer after Giefer suffered a concussion during the club’s opening game of the season against FC Koln. He was later ruled out for up to three months, calling for the recruitment of Bernd Leno from Stuttgart. Since

The Werkself manager, Robin Dutt, reserved praise for the 19-year-old saying that the German youth star has been a revelation ever since he landed at BayArena. He further added that the youngster has already impressed in such a short span and could extend
his stay at the club. Dutt also hinted at a new contract for Leno, meaning the player could represent Leverkusen during the next season too.

Leverkusen are currently fourth on the league table with 12 points and will next be in action against FC Koln on Saturday, September 17.
