Eight Bayer 04 Women on international duty

After seven matchdays in the Google Pixel Women's Bundesliga eight Leverkusen players are set to make their next appearances for their national teams. From possible debuts through to play-offs in Euro qualifiers: Bayer04.de provides an overview of the international call-ups for Werkself Women players.
Kramer und Vilhjalmsdottir

First-choice defender Lilla Turanyi is in the Hungary squad for the first round of the play-offs against Scotland in the qualifiers for the Euro finals next summer. The Hungary women's team are at home to Scotland first on Friday, 25 October with the return match in the UK four days later. The winners of the play-offs will compete in the next international break, from 27 November to 3 December, again over two legs in the second play-off round for the remaining places at the 2025 European Championships in Switzerland.

Striker Cornelia Kramer is hoping to make her debut for Denmark with the team coached by Andree Jeglertz playing two friendlies at home against South Africa and the Netherlands. 21-year-old Kramer has previously been called up twice to the national squad but is still waiting to make her international debut for Denmark. Teammate Karolina Lea Vilhjalmsdottir faces a long journey with Iceland for two friendlies against the USA. The matches for the Iceland Women in the United States are due to be played overnight on 25 October in Austin and on 27 October in Nashville.

Kögel and Piljic called up to Germany U23 squad

The two Leverkusen players Kristin Kögel and Katharina Piljic, who have played all the games for the Black and Reds in the 2024/24 season so far, are in the Germany U23 squad for the first games in October. The German Football Association (DFB) set up the U23 squad, coached by Kathrin Peter, this year to enable the women junior teams to play between the U20 World Cups. The U23 team will take part in a round of international fixtures. The 25-year-old Kögel and the 21-year-old Piljic from the Bayer 04 Women's team are two of five older players, born after 1 January 2002, who are over the age limit but who can still play. Defender Julia Mickenhagen is on standby. Also called up for the U23 team of her country is defender Emilie Bragstad. The 22-year-old is in the Norway U23 squad for a friendly against Portugal.

Delice Boboy and Estrella Merino Gonzalez are away with the Germany U19 squad for a DFB training course in Portugal. The U19 players have two friendlies against Norway and the Netherlands to be played on the Algarve.
