Matysik joins Bayer 04 from the Polish champions Gornik Leczna. Playing for the Champions League participants, the midfielder has won the league title twice in the last two years and did the double in 2017/18 by winning the domestic cup competition. She was also champion of Poland with her first professional club KKPK Medyk Konin in 2014 and 2015 and she also played on the European stage with both Konin and Leczna in the Women's Champions League.
In addition, Matysik played for the Poland U17 and U19 teams, winning the gold medal at the European Championship with the U17s in 2013. She received her first full international call-up in 2018.
Head coach Achim Feifel on the new signing: "With the signing of Sylwia, we have brought a young Poland international with great potential into our team. She plays in central midfield, is very competitive, full of running and is very athletic. We're very much looking forward to working together."

This year - for the third time - the parents of the Bayer 04 youth players from the U8 to U15 age groups once again took part in the WDR Christmas Miracle. Under the motto "Goals against hunger in the world - parents in goal!", they organised their own fundraising campaign to once again actively support the important WDR campaign. The sum of €3,420 was handed over at the Glashaus in Essen in the middle of the week during the live programme.
