Borussia Dortmund sensation Mario Gotze rules out move away from Bundesliga – Bundesliga news
Borussia Dortmund attacking midfielder, Mario Gotze, has showed gratitude to former Bayern Munich defender, Franz Beckenbauer, for comparing him with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 wonderkid, Lionel Messi.
The legendary figure compared the midfielder after his performance in Dortmund’s opening game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hamburger-SV-c39485, where the German grabbed a goal and two assists in his team’s 3-1victory.
Gotze reckoned that the Beckenbauer was too kind to say these words for him. He himself thought that there is a long way to go for him to even gets close to the Argentine sensation.
The starlet was delighted to make a winning start to the 2011/12 season and was confident of repeating the feats from last season. He told that he would give more than one hundred percent in order to lead his team to yet another title.
In an interview to a local news paper, the 19-year-old enthused, "I am definitely not yet at the same level as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296. It's astonishing to see what he has already achieved. He is one of my idols and I obviously feel flattered when someone like Franz
Beckenbauer compares me with him."
He told that it is an honour for him to be compared with Messi but clearly stated that there is a long bridge between his skills and the Argentinean’s, and that he needs to work a lot harder in order to even get closer to him.
Gotze took this opportunity to address his teammates and urged them to maintain the same levels of concentration and composure for the upcoming assignments.
The teenager also confirmed that he has no recent plans of leaving the country. He seemed pleased with his efforts in Germany and wanted to continue representing the champions for the time being.
The player concluded by saying, "Everything works here. We have a very good coach [Jurgen Klopp], a team with sensational prospects and we all understand each other. Also I have my family, what more could I want? I know some players who have played abroad.
It was not always easy for them. For me that would definitely be too early."
Gotze found his way into Dortmund’s senior side in 2009 and has seven goals to his name so far from 39 league appearances. He made his http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 debut in 2010 and has six caps under his belt until now. He will next be in action against Hoffenheim on Saturday,
August 13.
