“Niklas has always been a reliable team player in our squad over the past few years,” stated Simon Rolfes, managing director for sport at Bayer 04. “As a guarantor of a high level of training, he was and is an important component of our ambitious team even without much playing time. Niklas should and will continue to fulfil this ambition in the future.”

For Lomb, this contract extension is “yet another wonderful vote of confidence from Bayer 04. For someone like me who came here as a teenager, such a long-term deal as a 30-year-old is something very special,” said the goalkeeper. “Now I’ll fight with all my might to achieve the club’s current and future goals together with our team and the entire club.”
