Bayer 04 Leverkusen, a privately owned company headquartered in Germany, founded in 1904, operates with approximately 470 employees and reported $419.9M in revenue as of 2024. The company specializes in spectator sports, functioning as a German professional football club based in Leverkusen, Nordrhein-Westfalen.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen head coach Kasper Hjulmand stated on March 20, 2026, that his team is prepared for their upcoming match against Heidenheim, despite Heidenheim's 18th-place standing, acknowledging the difficulty of playing there and aiming to "go into the international break feeling good." Previously, on March 17, 2026, the Werkself were knocked out of a competition following a 2-0 defeat in the second leg against Arsenal in North London. Coach Hjulmand had fielded the same starting team that secured a 1-1 draw in the first leg at the BayArena a week earlier, in what was described as a hard-fought contest. Ahead of that match, earlier on March 17, 2026, reports highlighted Arsenal's historical record of being eliminated in only three of 20 knockout rounds after avoiding defeat away from home in the first leg. This followed a period of differing views within the club regarding player transfers. On March 15, 2026, sporting managing director Simon Rolfes ruled out Julian Brandt returning to Bayer Leverkusen from Borussia Dortmund this summer, clarifying comments made the previous day. On March 14, 2026, CEO Fernando Carro had expressed to German broadcaster DAZN his desire to see Brandt rejoin his former club.
