It is worthwhile for existing Bayer 04 members to recruit new members and thereby benefit from an exciting bonus. With a bit of luck you can also win a framed and signed championship jersey from the 2023/24 season.
And here's how it works: Complete a membership online for a family member, a friend, acquaintance or colleague. For each application you will receive a Danke Xabi Alonso scarf. Every successfully completed membership will automatically put you in a draw for the framed and signed champion's jersey.
This event runs from today, 30 January, up to and including the member matchday on Sunday, 2 February.
Also within the timescale of the 04 days from today to Sunday, Bayer 04 members can benefit from a 30% discount on the whole Castore collection and on names and numbers on the jerseys. The discount also applies to highlight articles like the champion's jersey with double badge and special box. The events counts both online at the web shop as well as in the Fanwelt.
Not included are the purple goalkeeper's jersey 2024/25 (sales start on 2 February in the Fanwelt, see below), the framed champions jersey from the 2023/24 season as well as already reduced Castore articles.
The popular Club collection – the exclusive merch line for Bayer 04 members – is being extended with three new articles in time for the members matchday. New articles are a polo shirt, a zip hoodie and a jacket. In addition, the black Club cap is available again. The articles will be available from Saturday, 1 February, online at the web shop as well as in the Fanwelt.

In addition, members will receive a free Danke Xabi Alonso scarf if spending €35 or more. This offer only applies on Sunday.
On the matchday there will also again be a couple of offers and promotions. That includes a wheel of fortune where exciting main prizes are to be one. In addition, TSV Bayer Leverkusen will be present with a membership stand as well as the judo section.

Under Carles Martínez, the Werkself have so far proved unbeatable at the BayArena. The Spaniard has led his team to victory in all three of their most recent home matches – and, it's worth noting, without conceding a single goal. On Sunday, 18 October (kick-off: 15:30 CEST / live on DAZN and Werkself Radio), current league leaders SC Freiburg will make the trip to Leverkusen, but will be without their top scorer. What's more, the Werkself have won all three of their previous home matches against the Black Forest club. With a goal, Patrik Schick could not only secure a fourth consecutive victory but also set a memorable record. Meanwhile, on what will be the ‘Health Day' at the BayArena, much of the focus will be on physical wellbeing. Today's matchday news.
