Leicester allegedly offered Brazilian side Internacional €15 million for the midfielder, but he is instead looking for a move to Germany for a discounted price of €10 million.

The signing is expected to be officially unveiled on Wednesday, according to ESPNFC. The move by Aranguiz follows fellow compatriots Arturo Vidal, Gonzalo Jara, Marcelo Diaz, and Miiko Albornoz into the Bundesliga.

Aranguiz should link up with Leverkusen before the club's tough Champions League play-off tie against Lazio, which begins with the first leg next Tuesday.
