“After playing for Turbine Potsdam and most recently in England, Caroline Siems joins our team as a young but very experienced full-back,” said Bayer 04 head coach Achim Feifel. “She has enormous potential. And we hope she can provide lots of positive input with her dynamic and attacking style of play.”
Siems, who has played for all Germany junior teams up to the U19s, is looking forward, “to returning to the Bundesliga. Discussions with the Bayer 04 management and the conditions here have convinced me that I can best develop at Leverkusen both on and off the pitch. I’m very excited about the years ahead.”
The defender played for Turbine Potsdam from 2015 to 2020 before moving abroad to Aston Villa last year. Siems made 14 appearances for the Villa Women last term.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen will have to manage without the two strikers in the immediate future. Caroline Kehrer suffered a torn ligament in her right knee and Amy Wrigge tore her cruciate ligament.

Bayer 04 have the chance to reach the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League for the third time ever and the first in 14 years at Arsenal on Tuesday night (kick-off 21:00 CEST/20:00 local time). To do that, the Werkself not only require a strong performance like in the first leg, but also full concentration until the very last minute, as the Premier League leaders like to score late - as they did at the BayArena last week.
