Back with Leverkusen
Tillman is back with Leverkusen for preseason after returning from the post World Cup break, according to the club.
Analysis: Tillman finished the World Cup on a strong note for the United States, scoring two goals in the knockout phase and adding an assist across five appearances, including a deflected free kick goal in the round of 16 loss to Belgium. His return to Leverkusen training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to carry that momentum into the new 2026/27 Bundesliga season under new coach Carles Martinez Novell.
Scores another free kick Monday
Tillman scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 4-1 defeat against Belgium. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 69th minute.
Analysis: Tillman produced his side's only goal of the match through a deflected free-kick shot which leveled the scoring in the 31st minute. The midfielder finished the tournament in good form, tallying two goals in the knockout phase and adding to his lone assist across five appearances (four starts). Other than his set-piece upside, he enjoyed some freedom to attack from a central spot throughout the competition.
