According to A Bola, Bayer Leverkusen observed Moncef Zekri recently, but these approaches did not lead to formal negotiations.

According to A Bola, Moncef Zekri's performance has attracted growing interest from major European clubs, resulting in inquiries from clubs such as Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer Leverkusen is monitoring KV Mechelen's 17-year-old Moroccan-Belgian left-back, Moncef Zekri, for its flank positions for the summer 2026 transfer window. RB Leipzig, another German club, also considers him a priority, and Zekri reportedly prefers a move to the Bundesliga. Other interested clubs include Inter Milan, who are said to be in an advanced position, as well as Ajax Amsterdam and PSV Eindhoven. There is also interest from the Premier League, with Brentford and Brighton & Hove Albion linked. Sources indicate that no official offer has been made yet and the situation is at the observation and evaluation stage. A source close to the matter reports that Zekri's current value is estimated at approximately 4 million euros, while KV Mechelen has set a minimum starting price of 7 million euros, which could be supplemented by 2 million euros in performance-based bonuses. Zekri's contract with the Belgian club runs until June 2028; he has made 16 appearances in the Jupiler Pro League this season and has been capped 20 times for Morocco's U17 national team.
