'Rudi recounts…': Vollborn on Bayer 04 highlights in April

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 Cup (1993). And the Berliner stayed with the Werkself after ending his impressive playing career as he worked as a goalkeeping coach for the following nine years. Vollborn now works under the Bayer Cross as a fan liaison officer and club archivist. From February 2021, the personalised Black and Red lexicon takes Werkself fans under the heading of 'Rudi recounts...' on a brief trip through the history of Bayer 04 every month...

Vollborn looks back at goals, matches, personalities and stories away from the pitch from the Bayer 04 club history. For the month of April, the Leverkusen legend shows fans an April fool’s joke by Werkself players in 1992, which did not go down well with Reinhard Saftig, the head coach at the time.

Also for the month of April: TV highlights of two games against Werder Bremen in 1997 and in 2002 plus the best goals scored by Stefan Reinartz and Co. Click HERE for all the articles.
