There have been positive Covid-19 cases at the Spanish top-flight club and the club management responded by cancelling the trip to Germany. Bayer 04 are now looking for a new opponent for the final pre-season friendly. The Werkself kick off the new season on 7 August with the DFB Cup tie against FC Lokomotive Leipzig.
Tickets for the friendly against FC Utrecht, with the kick-off at the Ulrich Haberland Stadium at 16.00 CEST on Wednesday 28 July, are exclusively available from the Bayer 04 service centre on 0214 5000 1904. Away fans are not permitted; spectators must be double vaccinated, have recovered from the virus or have a negative test. Children over the age of six need a certified, negative test result. The relevant documents are to be shown on entering the stadium.
Tickets cost five euros. All proceeds go to the 'Leverkusen hilft' campaign organised by the Leverkusen community foundation.
After eight years in the youth set-up at Bayer 04 Leverkusen, Benjamin Adam is leaving the club. The 35-year-old, who most recently coached the Leverkusen U17s, will take charge of the Hansa Rostock U19 team next season.
