Leverkusen team defender Jens Nowotny announced that he will definitely leave the German club after this season. After a series of knee injuries, which was already the fourth in his career, the 32-year-old defender returned to the field in good shape and helped the team advance in the fight for a spot in the next year's UEFA Cup. However, the player himself feels that it is time for him to leave "BayArena", where he has spent 10 years of his career. "I have decided to look for a new sports challenge. Bayer offered a good deal to stay for another two years, but I will focus all my energy on the last three championship matches to ensure the club's place in the UEFA Cup," says Nowotny. While J. Nowotny has not officially announced where he will continue his career, there have already been reports in the German press that the player will move to Italy after this season.
