Shortly before half-time in the clash with Hoffenheim at the Kurtekotten Performance Centre, Wich injured herself off the ball; she went off the pitch in pain. The Werkself Women were one player short up to half-time with the score at 0-0 with Henrietta Csiszár coming on for the captain in the second half.
Wich missed the first half of last season due to a torn cruciate. This term, the holding midfielder played in every game with the exception of the clash with VfL Wolfsburg.

A fresh look for the BayArena: The Bayer 04 stadium will have new seating in the form of folding seats for the 2026/27 campaign that will ensure significantly improved seating comfort and simplified movement within the rows of seats. As part of routine replacement after 17 years, fans of the Werkself were able to purchase the existing seats, used to witness the first German league title in the club's history. In addition, a large proportion of the seats will be donated to charitable projects, primarily in the local region. Bayer 04 fans can look forward to new, functional folding seats for the season opener at the beginning of August - still in the club colours of black and red, of course.
