The Legacy

Ulf Kirsten spearheaded the Bayer Leverkusen attack in 1996-1997 as the side pushed for top honors in the Bundesliga. His partnership with Paulo Sérgio proved vital to the team's offensive rhythm under manager Christoph Daum. With Adidas providing the kits and Korn appearing as the front sponsor, the club navigated a demanding league schedule. This Adidas third shirt marked a high-intensity season of top-flight football where the team remained a persistent threat to the established order at the top of the German table.

Key Moment

Bayer Leverkusen finished second in the 1996-1997 Bundesliga, missing the title by two points behind Bayern Munich.
