Based on official match data from the Bundesliga, a total of 40 players were selected who have particularly stood out in the current campaign.
In Moussa Diaby (9 goals, 8 assists) and Jeremie Frimpong (8 goals, 6 assists) the nominees include the two most prolific goalscorers for the Werkself in the current Bundesliga season. Playmaker Florian Wirtz, who celebrated his comeback to league action at the end of January after recovering from a cruciate injury, has been involved in seven goals in his twelve Bundesliga appearances this term.
A panel will decide which Bundesliga players actually end up in the Team of the Season. This is made up – as with the monthly votes for Player of the Month and Rookie of the Month – from pundits (weighting: 30%) consisting of Bundesliga legends and selected media partners. In addition to the pundits panel, fans also have a big portion of the vote (40%). Also entitled to vote are the team captains of the 18 Bundesliga clubs (30%).
The eleven best players will form the Bundesliga Team of the Season presented by EA SPORTS and they will have significantly increased values in FIFA 23.
A simple approach to sport with games, fun and a highlight at the end: Bayer 04 organised a very special training session for 40 participants aged between six and 27 in cooperation with the Football Association of the Middle Rhine (FVM). At the day of action for women and girls with disabilities at the Kurtekotten Performance Centre, many of the participants gained their first experience of football.

In 36 matches, including in the UEFA Europa League, the 18-year-old has scored 14 goals. In the summer, Alajbegovic, now a Bosnia international, will return to Leverkusen - and thus not only achieve the next milestone still early in his career, but also enrich the Werkself squad with his footballing versatility and determination.
