On loan to the end of the season: Bayer 04 sign keeper Jonas Omlin from Mönchengladbach

Bayer 04 Leverkusen have signed Swiss goalkeeper Jonas Omlin from Borussia Mönchengladbach. The 32-year-old joins the Werkself from the Lower Rhine Bundesliga club on loan to the end of the current season. This is the reaction of Bayer 04 to the injury to first choice keeper Mark Flekken, who faces a long spell on the sidelines.

"Jonas Omlin is an internationally experienced keeper who has shown his quality many times at clubs in Switzerland, France and the Bundesliga," said Bayer 04 managing director sport Simon Rolfes. "Jonas completes our goalkeeping trio following Mark's absence. With him, Janis Blaswich and Niklas Lomb, we are now ready for the challenges of the coming weeks and months."

Omlin joined Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2023 from Montpellier HSC, who were in Ligue 1 at the time. The four-time Switzerland international has played 36 games for the Foals to date. "I'm delighted a club like Bayer 04 Leverkusen have placed their trust in me. A Champions League club with big ambitions - it's a great challenge to support my new team and play my part in helping to achieve he goals they’ve set themselves," said Omlin, who will wear the number 18 jersey at Bayer 04.

New seating for the BayArena - donation and reuse of existing seats

A fresh look for the BayArena: The Bayer 04 stadium will have new seating in the form of folding seats for the 2026/27 campaign that will ensure significantly improved seating comfort and simplified movement within the rows of seats. As part of routine replacement after 17 years, fans of the Werkself were able to purchase the existing seats, used to witness the first German league title in the club's history. In addition, a large proportion of the seats will be donated to charitable projects, primarily in the local region. Bayer 04 fans can look forward to new, functional folding seats for the season opener at the beginning of August - still in the club colours of black and red, of course. A glimpse at the BayArena during the refurbishment.
