Paulinho leaves Bayer Leverkusen. Until the end of his contract, the 22-year-old will be loaned to the Brazilian first division club Atlético Mineiro.
The Paulinho chapter is finally closed in Leverkusen. The Brazilian is moving back home – the Werkself have officially announced that.
Bayer Leverkusen and Paulinho will part ways with immediate effect. The 22-year-old Brazilian hasn’t been happy since his much-noticed move to the Werkself in 2018. Bayer 04 paid Vasco da Gama EUR 18.5 million for the talented attacking all-rounder.
79 competitive games in the Leverkusen jersey with only nine meager goals and five assists later, Paulinho had long since announced his departure from the Rhine for the winter. Bayer 04 officially announced it on Thursday afternoon.
Leverkusen are lending the Olympic champion to the Brazilian first division club Atlético Mineiro until his contract expires in the summer. “Both sides have certainly imagined their cooperation differently over the past few years. With this transfer for the rest of the current season, we have now found a satisfactory solution for everyone involved,” explained sporting director Simon Rolfes.
