With him, we have brought in a new, very invigorating element for our Werkself,” said Bayer 04 managing director sport, Simon Rolfes. “Miguel is a superb footballer – exactly the player we wanted for this position.”
The technically gifted left-footer, who will wear the number 3 jersey, arrives in Leverkusen with high expectations. “The club has really impressed me over the past few years; Bayer 04 have an excellent reputation in Italy and also in my home country of Spain,” said Gutiérrez, who is 1.80 metres tall. “I’ve heard a lot about the Bundesliga, watched matches and I’m really looking forward to the atmosphere in German stadiums. Above all, though, I always want to be successful, both domestically and internationally. Bayer Leverkusen, with their fantastic squad, give me the best possible conditions to achieve that.”

“As far as mentality and determination are concerned, we have nothing to reproach ourselves for,” Robert Andrich said up after the first home defeat for the Werkself this term. In terms of their play, too, the Black and Reds put in a respectable performance for long stretches of this intense and physical match, outperforming VfB Stuttgart in most areas. It was only in terms of efficiency in front of goal that the Swabians had the edge over the Werkself. Head coach Carles Martínez wants to learn from this so that, in future, they can “win this sort of match too”. The Werkself review.
