Kai Havertz signs fan petition for Bayer 04 Campus

He is the best example of how far successful and professional youth development can go: Kai Havertz joined Bayer 04 from Alemannia Aachen at the age of eleven. At 17, the Germany international made his first appearance for the senior team, graduated from high school in Leverkusen and is still the youngest player ever to make one hundred appearances in the Bundesliga. From London, where he plays for top club Arsenal, Havertz is closely following the discussion about the Bayer 04 Campus and, like more than 11,000 other supporters, has signed the petition launched by Bayer 04 fans from Monheim am Rhein.

Kai Havertz pro Bayer 04 Campus

Havertz thus joins the ranks of numerous prominent supporters such as Rudi Völler, Reiner Calmund, Benjamin Henrichs, René Adler, Paulo Sergio, Niklas Lomb, Rüdiger Vollborn, Hans-Peter Lehnhoff and Stefan Kießling. They are all campaigning for the campus, where the Bayer 04 youth teams are to train, to be built in Monheim am Rhein. The issue is on the agenda of today's meeting of Monheim council.

Werkself review: ‘We lacked the clinical edge’

“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.

Rudi recounts…: Vollborn November highlights

Rüdiger Vollborn has been at the club for 40 years, he holds the record number of Bundesliga appearances for the club (401) and is the only Bayer 04 player to have won both the UEFA Cup (1988) and the DFB Pokal (1993).
