Overview

  • Turbine Potsdam's relegation was confirmed after a 1–3 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, leaving the club with just one point from 19 matches and a –60 goal differential.
  • This marks the club's second Bundesliga relegation in three years, following a brief return to the top flight last season.
  • Club president Karsten Ritter-Lang warned of potential staff cuts due to the financial strain exacerbated by the lack of a main sponsor since mid-2024.
  • The Frauen-Bundesliga will expand to 14 teams next season, meaning Turbine Potsdam was the only team relegated this year.
  • Union Berlin's likely promotion to the top division intensifies competition for players and sponsors in the Potsdam region.
