Granit Xhaka stats: Former Arsenal midfielder hits insane record since leaving the London club
The Swiss midfielder’s resurgence in his professional career has reached an all-time high since he joined Bayer Leverkusen earlier this season. The German giants have been one of the most powerful teams in Europe this season under the leadership of Xabi Alonso and Xhaja has played a huge role in that.
The 31-year-old midfielder left the Emirates last summer after a seven-year spell with the North London giants. The Swiss also played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s title challenge last year which.
Xhaka has won the Bundesliga title and has already reached the finals of the DFB Pokal and Europa League with Leverkusen this year. He has been described as the ‘beating heart’ of Leverkusen as everything goes through the Swiss in the middle of the park.

The Swiss has started all 31 league games this season, tallying three goals in the process. Both Alonso and Xhaka have come together in perfect harmony to guide Leverkusen to a possible treble at the end of this ongoing campaign.
After securing a spot in the Europa League final, Bayer Leverkusen have broken the record for the most number of games unbeaten in European competitions, 49. Meanwhile, Xhaka has not experienced a defeat since Arsenal’s 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest in May 2023.
The former Arsenal midfielder has also equaled the record for the most number of chances created in a Europa League match, 10. Xhaka equaled the record with former Man United star Juan Mata who created 10 chances against Club Brugge back in 2010.
