The Werkself will play "with the cross on the chest" at home in the new season. There will be a prominent red cross on the black home shirt That is an expression of the link to the Bayer Works, the source of both the club and the city of Leverkusen. The shirt has been available for a week at the online shop as well as at the Bayer 04 fan shops.
And the special design has gone down well with the fans. Compared with last year, nearly twice as many home shirts have been sold in the same period of time. The positive response is comparable with the enthusiastic reaction of the Leverkusen support to the Werkself home shirt two years ago. Back then, there was a reminder of the legendary Champions League season in 2001/02, when Bayer 04 reached the final against Real Madrid, with a home shirt with black and red stripes that immediately after its introduction led to a similar run as in this year.
Bayer 04 fans can look forward to the new 2023/24 away shirt this week. It will be launched on Friday morning 21 July and the Werkself will play in the new shirts for the first time in that evening's friendly against SC Paderborn. New signings Granit Xhaka, Jonas Hofmann and Alejandro Grimaldo are set to feature.
The kick-off at the IMS Arena in Velbert is at 17.30 CEST with tickets available to Bayer 04 fans from 16.00 CEST at counter four. And the new away kit will also be available on site.
Bayer 04 will present the third kit for the 2023/24 season on 9 August.
