This past week, members of Bayer4Arab travelled to Leverkusen for an unforgettable experience with the club. In addition to attending a UEFA Champions League match at the BayArena, the group enjoyed an exclusive behind-the-scenes stadium tour, providing a closer look at the club they passionately support. During their visit, the official inauguration of the fan club also took place, marked by the presentation of a Bayer 04 jersey and official diploma — a special moment celebrating their place within the Werkself family.
