Bayer Leverkusen's fate in the Bundesliga next season will be determined by their performance in upcoming matches, which I mean the pre-season matches, there are 4 matches:

1. Bochum - Leverkusen
2. Fortuna Sittard - Leverkusen
3. Leverkusen - Pisa
4. Chelsea - Bayer Leverkusen

Let's just see how Leverkusen performs in those four matches. If they can get good results, then we can expect Leverkusen to perform well in the Bundesliga next season.

I never pay attention to pre-season games, it's not much different from the club's training sessions when the players play 11 vs. 11. Endless number of substitutions, experimental lineups, unclear motivation of the opposing team - for example, you are playing seriously, and for the other team it is just a warm-up game. How can you evaluate the result obtained? We will see the first results in the first rounds, it seems to me that a lot will be clear right away about what awaits Bayer with Ten Hag.

The pre-season is not that hot, so I don’t really take it seriously like that. So far Bayer Leverkusen have not played any match that we can say they are going to have a good season or not. These matches that are listed above may be a factor to determine how Bayer Leverkusen's performance will be.

I’m really eager to see Bayer Leverkusen under Ten Hag; I want to see how their performance will be in the coming season. Since they changed their manager and sold out two of their key players, it makes me very eager to see them on the pitch again, so I can’t know how far they are going in the coming season.

You can't use preseason to determine how good a team will go when the season actually starts because there is a big difference between preseason and the main league the matches in the preseasons are all for keeping fit and finding the form of players but that is not the case in the main league

If pre season can not be used to determine how a team is likely to perform when the new season begins then how are they able to know the players that are going to be starting in a game for the season? We understand the difference between the tournament and the pre season games but a player performance during the pre season is used to determine his performance in the league since the players performance in the training make the coach to start them in the match so I believe a player who is not feet during the training and pre season games will not be given the opportunity to start a match during the new season.
