Furkan ‘FURKY’ Kayacik joined Leverkusen in September 2021 where he was both an eSports player as well as content creator. The 23-year-old played for Bayer 04 in the VBL Club Championship, the Global Series and in the DFB eCup September. Kayacik was in the top 16 in this year's VBL Grand Finals and in the top eight in the DFB eCup. "We thank Furky for his great commitment over the last two years. He was not only a brilliant example for eSports at Bayer 04 on the console but also throughout the digital world," said Julian Kaiser, the eSports manager.

This season, Sean ‘SEAN_LDW07’ Landwehr will join his cousin Marc ‘MARC_LDW23’ Landwehr. The 20-year-old Leverkusen-born player was most recently at FC Victoria Köln eSports where he finished runner-up in the third division. Kaiser on the new signing: "We are very happy to welcome Sean into our ranks as another eSports player from Leverkusen. He has demonstrated his ability as an eSports player in the virtual third division and we are confident he will be a valuable addition to us on the virtual pitch as well as off it – in particular alongside his cousin Marc."
