"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."
The Bundesliga home game against VfL Wolfsburg in the first half of the season was one of those classic ‘days to forget’ for Bayer 04 Women. It started with goalkeeper Charlotte Voll being shown a red card in the first minute of the game, and following a further sending-off, coach Roberto Pätzold's 9-women side ended up losing 5-1 to last season's runners-up. At 18.30 CET on Sunday, they'll have the chance to exact revenge at the AOK Stadium - and pick up valuable points in the race for third place.
