"We've had a very impressive season in the women's Bundesliga and that is obviously also due to the work of the coaching staff. We are happy to be able to go forward with these coaches in future," said Thomas Eichin, director of the Performance Centre.

Jacqueline Dünker has worked alongside Achim Feifel as a coach with the Bayer 04 Women's team since 2019/20. The 34-year-old wore the Bayer 04 shirt herself from 2008 2011 and was part of the promotion team in her second season. "I'm very happy to be able to carry on working here at Bayer 04. We have a great and committed team with young players and I’m excited to see their potential," said Dünker. "We have developed women's football well here at the club and we believe in our targets. I'm very happy about continuing to help out."
