The team under head coach Gerardo Seoane will go in search of goals on the road in black in the coming season. But the Werkself players will not have to manage without the home end: The stylish design of the new away kit is based on the sea of flags of the Bayer 04 fans in the North Stand.
The third shirt for the new season is white with red and black accents of colour. As with the home shirt, the away and third shirts have the word Werkself on the back of the shirt.

The two new shirts are available now from the Bayer 04 fan shops and from the online shop. For adults the kit is available in sizes S to 5XL and costs €84.90.
The addition of players names – including new signing Adam Hlozek – again costs €14.90 this year. One change: Fans of the Werkself can now have the names of players from the Women’s squad printed on the shirts. Printing of own names again costs €19.90 this year.
In the first episode of the new interview series "A New Chapter", Werkself defender Jarell Quansah reflects on his first few months under the Cross and speaks about his journey from England to Leverkusen. Having come through the ranks at Liverpool, a new chapter began for Quansah in the summer at Bayer 04 — with new objectives, fresh challenges and much ambition. In the video, the centre-back speaks about his development as a player and person, about the courage to leave your own comfort zone, and about what it means for him to be part of an international team in a different country. Honest, reflective and full of motivation — just like the start of his Werkself career.
