The Legacy

Ulf Kirsten led the Bayer Leverkusen attack as the club secured a second-place finish in the Bundesliga. Christoph Daum took charge mid-season, steering the team to qualify for the UEFA Cup. Paulo Sérgio provided the creativity from midfield, while Jens Nowotny organized a defense that proved difficult to break down under the Adelholzener sponsorship. Adidas produced this home shirt as the club established itself as a regular challenger at the top of the German league table.

Key Moment

Bayer Leverkusen finished second to Bayern Munich in the 1996-1997 Bundesliga, securing a return to the UEFA Champions League.
