The 22-year-old was signed from the then Hungarian runners-up MTK Hungária Budapest last summer and since then she has made 22 appearances in a Bayer 04 shirt. "I'm very happy to stay here because we are building something together here with this team. There is still potential in our team. I'm looking forward to the next two years," Turányi said in anticipation of the coming seasons.
"Lilla has quickly established herself as a first choice player with her ball-winning ability, pace and above all winning mentality. We are very happy that she will play for Bayer 04 for another year," said head coach Achim Feifel. And Linda Schöttler, Bayer 04 Women's team general manager, underlined Turányi's development and potential: "Lilla has come here without being able to speak German and has developed into a leader within the shortest possible time and she is now also able to direct and lead her teammates verbally on the pitch. I'm sure she can make more of her potential and that we will enjoy very good times with Lilla."
