Strategic Contract Renewal
Getting Palacios to sign a new contract is like really smart from Bayer Leverkusen because they want to keep doing well in Germany and Europe. Simon Rolfes who runs the sports stuff at the club says Palacios is really good on his own but also has played in lots of big games which is what they need. Like he won the World Cup with Argentina in 2022 which is pretty massive for the club to have someone like that.
