Bayer 04 extend contract with Germany U19 international Montrell Culbreath to 2030

Bayer 04 Leverkusen have extended the contract with Germany U19 international Montrell Culbreath. The attacking midfielder and right winger has penned a deal with the Bundesliga club that runs to 30 June 2030. Culbreath has played for the Werkself as a youth player since 2023. Last December, he scored his first Bundesliga goal for the Leverkusen first team in the Bayer 04 3-1 away win at RB Leipzig.

"We are delighted to have signed Montrell Culbreath. He has developed brilliantly in our youth teams over the past few years and he has also shown his great potential in many training sessions with the first team," explained Bayer 04 managing director sport Simon Rolfes. As director of football at Bayer 04, Kim Falkenberg also emphasises the great potential of the tricky and fast attacking player: "Montrell is currently one of the absolute top performers in our U19 side. We are confident he will successfully continue on his path to the senior squad and, as a home-grown talent, become a Bayer 04 player of the future."

Culbreath is enthusiastic and highly motivated for the coming years: "This professional contract fulfils a dream of mine. Being able to make it at a Champions League club like Bayer 04 for such a long period of time is a dream come true," said the right-footer. "I will try to learn a lot, constantly improve and justify the trust placed in me."

At 18.30 CET on Sunday, they'll have the chance to exact revenge at the AOK Stadium - and pick up valuable points in the race for third place.

After full time in the 1-1 draw against FC Bayern Munich, the Bayer 04 fans first had to catch their breath. Firstly because of their usual loud support, and secondly because of the great drama they'd witnessed on the pitch: three disallowed goals, two red cards and a Werkself side who "again produced a very good performance against strong opponents", as head coach Kasper Hjulmand described.
