German League club Leverkusen extend Schick contract until 2030

Czech striker Patrik Schick has extended his contract with Bayer Leverkusen through to 2030, the Bundesliga club announced on Monday.

- 

“Bayer 04 Leverkusen have extended the contract with Czechia international Patrik Schick. The striker has signed a contract to 30 June 2030," the club said in a statement on their website.

Schick, 29, was an integral part of Leverkusen's unbeaten German domestic double-winning squad in the 2023/24 season.

Since joining the Werkself in 2020, Schick has netted 81 times in 168 appearances in all competitions, as well as laying on 12 assists.

Under the tutelage of now-departed coach Xabi Alonso, Schick contributed vital goals on numerous occasions as Leverkusen became the first club to win the Bundesliga without losing a match.

He also lifted the German Cup and German Super Cup in 2024.

“I want to and will continue to contribute goals, that’s my strength. In addition, I'm also looking to being a key part of the rebuild into a new team capable of winning trophies,” said Schick.

The forward's decision to extend his contract bucks the trend of departures this summer from the Bundesliga runners-up.
