Freiburg

Flekken, who has signed a three-year deal with Leverkusen, had been at Brentford since joining from Freiburg in May 2023.

Netherlands international Flekken joined Brentford from German side Freiburg for a reported £11m in May 2023.

Despite losing just twice in the Bundesliga this season, Leverkusen's title defence came to an end on Sunday with their draw at Freiburg.

Kane even made his way to the touchline ready to join the party until a stoppage-time Leipzig leveller meant the wait was delayed by a day when second-placed Bayer Leverkusen drew 2-2 at Freiburg on Sunday.

Straus, who joined Bayern in 2022, has led the team to a 54-2-7 record and can win his third straight Frauen-Bundesliga title with a win over Freiburg next weekend.
