Bayer Leverkusen keen to sign Jonathan Clauss from Nice

Jonathan Clauss Bayer Leverkusen are keen to sign France international right-back Jonathan Clauss (32) from OGC Nice, according to Foot Mercato. The former Lens and Marseille fullback was reportedly the subject of serious interest from a still-unnamed club, and the latter is actually Erik ten Hag’s Werkself.
