Finding second place in the Bundesliga next season will likely also be quite difficult for Leverkusen if the quality of their players has declined. Because a team like Dortmund is a team that frequently finishes in the top four of the Bundesliga, Leverkusen will have to compete fiercely for a top-four finish, as finishing second will not be easy for Leverkusen next season. I have even more confidence in Dortmund for that position, as I currently still doubt Leverkusen's ability to secure that position by the end of next season.
Leverkusen has changed their manager. At the same time the team has sold several important players in the squad. Leverkusen has made a lot of money by selling Wirtz, Frimpong, KOssounou and Xhaka. Despite making money, Leverkusen's squad has definitely become quite weak. Although Leverkusen has bought players like Quansha, Tillman and Maza. Even then, I doubt whether we will see stable performance from Leverkusen next season. Leverkusen may try to stay in the top four of the table. However, the second place in the table is more likely to be occupied by Dortmund or Frankfurt.
