The 2021-22 campaign delivered an immediate and triumphant return to the top flight for Werder Bremen, as Die Werderaner clinched a spectacular 2nd-place finish in the 2. Bundesliga to secure instant promotion. Leading the charge was the prolific forward Marvin Ducksch, whose league-topping 20 goals proved decisive, forming a lethal partnership with Niclas Füllkrug. It was a sensational year, under manager Ole Werner, that marked the club's powerful resurgence and remains a defining chapter in their modern history.
