"We've had a very impressive season in the women's Bundesliga and that is obviously also due to the work of the coaching staff. We are happy to be able to go forward with these coaches in future," said Thomas Eichin, director of the Performance Centre.

Jacqueline Dünker has worked alongside Achim Feifel as a coach with the Bayer 04 Women's team since 2019/20. The 34-year-old wore the Bayer 04 shirt herself from 2008 2011 and was part of the promotion team in her second season. "I'm very happy to be able to carry on working here at Bayer 04. We have a great and committed team with young players and I’m excited to see their potential," said Dünker. "We have developed women's football well here at the club and we believe in our targets. I'm very happy about continuing to help out."

New seating for the BayArena - donation and reuse of existing seats

A fresh look for the BayArena: The Bayer 04 stadium will have new seating in the form of folding seats for the 2026/27 campaign that will ensure significantly improved seating comfort and simplified movement within the rows of seats. As part of routine replacement after 17 years, fans of the Werkself were able to purchase the existing seats, used to witness the first German league title in the club's history. In addition, a large proportion of the seats will be donated to charitable projects, primarily in the local region. Bayer 04 fans can look forward to new, functional folding seats for the season opener at the beginning of August - still in the club colours of black and red, of course. A glimpse at the BayArena during the refurbishment.
