Only on Werkself TV can you see all the press conferences with Bayer 04 head coach Gerardo Seoane plus exclusive reaction from the Mixed Zone after the final whistle.

At the weekend there will be match highlights including all goals from the Women's, U19 and U17 teams and a perfect sporting overview of the Black and Red weekend.
Werkself TV will also provide highlights during the week: In addition to looking back at legendary matches under the new heading 'Da war doch was' (There was something) or magical moments from our Bayer 04 Legends once a month with Rüdiger Vollborn selecting videos for his popular series of 'Rudi erzählt' (Rudi recounts) that takes you on a historical tour through the Bayer 04 world. And if you think you have seen everything: Look forward in the coming weeks and months to some new challenges with our former heroes.
Of course, there are already certain formats: You can get to know our Werkself players from a completely different angle in ‘Schwarz oder Rot?!’ (Black or Red?), ‘Den kenn‘ ich’ (I know him) or in the new #BayerSportsFamily duel. Only Werkself TV offers you all timeless videos at a glance and a click.
