“Caroline is a true team player who brings the utmost commitment and maximum input to the team in every training session and match. We’re delighted we continue to have a player of such qualities in our ranks,” said Bayer 04 Women sporting director Achim Feifel: “With her athleticism and physical play, she really helps our team.”

Kehrer, who joined Bayer 04 from Portuguese side SC Braga in 2024, has made 40 competitive appearances for the Werkself. She has scored seven goals in 35 Bundesliga matches. The 29-year-old has featured in 16 league matches this season.

“I enjoy playing for this club in the Bundesliga. Bayer 04 have ambitious goals, which is why they’re still exactly the right team for me,” said Kehrer: “I’m really looking forward to scoring even more goals and improving as a player. Next season, I want to go for the top three and advance to the cup final with the team.”

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.
