Following the 1-1 draw at St. Pauli, defender Tah confirmed that he will leave reigning champions Leverkusen after his contract expires in the summer.

"Everything was said from the beginning. There was a point when I made the decision not to extend my contract and not to stay here. That's still the case," the 29-year-old said when asked in the mixed zone.

Germany international Tah joined the club from Hamburg in the summer of 2015, and after exactly 10 years with the Werkself, will see their long-standing relationship come to an end in a few weeks. He'll leave the BayArena with three trophies under his belt (Bundesliga, DFB Cup, Supercup) as well as a lasting reputation amongst the Leverkusen faithful.
