Bayer 04 Women sign striker Caroline Kehrer

“Caroline is a powerful and assertive centre-forward who is also very mobile,” said Achim Feifel, head of Bayer 04 Women. “Her versatility and runs in behind will benefit our attacking game.”

Kehrer scored 12 goals in 21 games in her debut season for Braga in 2022/23 and leaves the Portuguese club, who finished last year in fifth place, with a record of 29 goals in 65 competitive appearances. The right-footed 27-year-old previously spent 2021/22 at Uniao Torreense and the 2020/21 campaign with Ferencvaros in Hungary. She had earlier tasted top-flight football at Aalborg in Denmark in 2020.

“I’ve wanted to play in Germany for a long time and am convinced Bayer 04 is the perfect next step in my career,” said Kehrer. “I want to contribute to us scoring lots of goals with my finishing ability.”

Werkself move up to fourth place after 4-1 win against RB Leipzig

Bayer 04 put in a brilliant performance to beat RB Leipzig 4-1 on Bundesliga matchday 32 and are now fourth in a Champions League spot. The Black and Reds took control of the game right from the start and, with 75 per cent possession at one stage, took a 2-0 lead into the break through Patrik Schick (25’) and Nathan Tella (45+1’). The visitors initially tried to do more after the break, but the Werkself remained determined and Schick scored his second goal to increase the lead to 3-0 (76'). The Red Bulls pulled a goal back through Christoph Baumgartner (80'), but the disciplined Leverkusen side were not rattled - and certainly not Schick: The Czechia international crowned a brilliant display with his third goal shortly before the final whistle to make the final score 4-1.

Matchday news #B04RBL: All in red for the next top match win

In the previous game against RB Leipzig in December last year, the Werkself turned came from behind to win 3-1 and further improved Leverkusen's already strong record against the Red Bulls. Montrell Culbreath stood out with his first goal on his debut for the Black and Reds. While the 18-year-old would certainly like to score a second goal against Leipzig on Saturday night, the attack-minded visitors come to the BayArena in confident mood after five Bundesliga victories in a row. The Nordkurve12 supporters group knows the Werkself will therefore once again be reliant on the vociferous support of the fans, and has once again called for the ‘Finally Red’ campaign in the run-in.
