On 8 March 2019, it was announced that Grill would sign for Bayer Leverkusen starting from the 2020–21 Bundesliga season on a four-year deal.[3] Grill made his debut for the team on 28 February 2021, by playing the full 90-minutes in a 1–2 home loss to SC Freiburg, when Lukáš Hrádecký continues to recover from the achilles tendon problems.
