Xhaka joined the Bundesliga champions in a £21 million transfer this summer.

The 30-year-old played for Arsenal for seven years and decided it was time for a fresh challenge.

Xhaka has previously dismissed speculation that the move was because his wife was unhappy in England.

“I felt love and respect from Edu and Arteta, but I wanted to face a new challenge at Bayer Leverkusen.”
