Werkself complete performance diagnostic tests

Bayer 04 players are back in Leverkusen after a well-earned summer break. At the start of the preseason ahead of the 2023/24 campaign, the squad under head coach Xabi Alonso started with performance tests on Monday. The Werkself players certainly worked up a sweat in the Werkstatt at the BayArena.

The in part highly intensive tests such of spirogeometry did nothing to spoil the good mood. The first group of Werkself players including Jonathan Tah and Nadiem Amiri arrived at the Werkstatt, the Bayer 04 rehab and training centre at the BayArena, on Monday morning. They all completed a range of medical tests as well as coordination, mobility and stability checks.

Alejandro Grimaldo, Arthur and Gustavo Puerta also came to the BayArena over the course of Monday morning. The new signings were clearly happy and full of determination. The rest of the players including Jeremie Frimpong and young player Noah Mbamba arrived in the afternoon. Robert Andrich was also with the group. The 28-year-old midfielder has been working on his comeback after a metatarsal fracture in his left foot in the Werkstatt for the last couple of weeks.

The players recently on international duty were missing including goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky
