"Even though she didn't play as regularly last season as she previously did, Selina is an important part of our team," said Achim Feifel, Bayer 04 Women sporting director: "We're convinced she will continue to help us in the coming season with her strong tackling and playmaking skills."
Ostermeier moved to Leverkusen from league rivals SGS Essen in 2022 and has made 31 competitive appearances for the Werkself to date (one goal), nine of which came in the Google Pixel Women's Bundesliga last season.
"I decided to stay at Bayer 04 because I consider the conditions here to be very good for my personal development and I simply feel at home in the team," said Ostermeier: "I want to go for it again because I can now concentrate 100 per cent on football after completing my training. I'm looking forward to the new season with our new coach Roberto Pätzold and hope that we can all achieve our goals together."
It's a thrilling situation: as the season draws to a close, Stuttgart and Bayer 04 are heading into the home stretch almost neck and neck. After 32 games, with 17 wins, seven draws and eight defeats each, both teams are on 58 points. Even in terms of goals scored, VfB and the Werkself are level on 66. The Black and Reds have conceded just three fewer goals (43) than their rivals (46), which is why they sit one place behind fourth-placed Leverkusen. This Saturday, 9 May (kick-off: 15.30 CEST), the two teams go head to head at the MHP Arena in Stuttgart. The lowdown on our next opponents.
