Milena Nikolić, who has recovered from a Covid-19 infection in time, is also involved in World Cup qualifiers for Bosnia and Herzegovina against Azerbaijan and Montenegro.

Switzerland are also in search of points to take part in the World Cup and they face Romania and Italy. Irina Pando and Amira Arfaoui are on standby for the Swiss national team.

New seating for the BayArena - donation and reuse of existing seats

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. A glimpse at the BayArena during the refurbishment.
