Cornelia Kramer voted Bayer 04 Women's 'Player of the Season’ for 2024/25

Top scorer Cornelia Kramer has been voted Bayer 04 Women's 'Player of the Season’ after her first year in Black and Red. The Denmark international follows in the footsteps of former captain Elisa Senß, who won the fan poll in both 2022/23 and 2023/24. With more than 1,400 votes cast, Kramer just edged teammate Karolina Lea Vilhjalmsdottir into second place.
Player of the Season

The 22-year-old, who moved to Leverkusen from HB Koge in her native Denmark last summer, shone in her maiden season with 12 goals and three assists in 22 Bundesliga appearances. This not only made her the team's top scorer, but also earned her sixth place in the league rankings.

JUST LIKE last year: Vilhjalmsdottir and Kögel complete the podium

Just behind Kramer, who received 319 votes, was Vilhjalmsdottir, who finished as she did last season in second place. The player, who was on loan from FC Bayern Munich and who left the Werkself at the end of the season, also played in all 22 league games and contributed two goals and five assists. Kristin Kögel also repeated her result from last year by finishing third behind Kramer and Vilhjalmsdottir. The midfielder contributed five goals and three assists to Bayer 04 Women's record-breaking season, which saw them end the Bundesliga campaign in fourth place with 43 points, their best ever finish.

The top five in the rankings at a glance:

  1. Cornelia Kramer (22.7 per cent of the votes cast)
  2. Karolina Lea Vilhjalmsdottir (20.1)
  3. Kristin Kögel (13.7)
  4. Caroline Kehrer (5.3)
  5. Selina Ostermeier (4.7)
