“Ivana suffered the injury very soon after moving from Leverkusen to Munich. It was very important to us to give Ivana enough time after her return next year to get back to work with the team, “said Bianca Rech, Sports Director of FC Bayern Frauen, about the contract extension Rech is convinced: “Her strengths are certainly the versatility in the offensive area.
