In the second week of the Easter holidays, around 50 children taking part in activities at the Bayer 04 football school went to the BayArena on Wednesday afternoon, where they had an appointment with the two Werkself players Jonas Omlin and Montrell Culbreath for the Kids press conference. The duo took their time and answered every question the young footballers could think of - and of course the kids' requests for selfies and autographs were happily met afterwards.

A real highlight at the Bayer 04 Football School and a special, albeit early, Easter gift: The 50 or so children who took part went to the VIP area at the BayArena on Wednesday afternoon, where they had an appointment with the Werkself players Jonas Hofmann and Tim Oermann.

Among other things, Hofmann explained to the youngsters why he signed for Bayer 04 in 2023, while Oermann revealed the inspiration for his jersey number 15. And of course, the children’s requests for selfies and autographs were not left unfulfilled after the Q&A session.
