Bayer Leverkusen announced the signing of United States international Malik Tillman from PSV Eindhoven on Saturday, activating the 23-year-old's €35 million release clause, and it's not hard to see why.
Tillman completed an exceptional season in the Netherlands in 2024-25 and capped it off by being arguably the U.S. men's national team's best player on its run to the Gold Cup final. Not only is he a player in form, but he's also joining a team that's in a state of transition and has a definitive need in the creative department.
