Leverkusen have long held an interest in Xhaka and were close to signing him last summer before he managed to turn around his fortunes at Arsenal.
But he has now told teammates about returning to the German top flight, a league he played for four years when he was with Borussia Mönchengladbach.
However, a move to the Bundesliga is likely in 2024, when he could leave for free, as Arsenal does not want to lose him this summer.
