The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 national is looking forward to hosting his former colleagues at the Allianz Arena on Friday for the league game, and also echoed that he is really happy at his new club
Bayern Munich central defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dante-c10236 is relishing the prospect of facing his former team Borussia Monchengladbach over the weekend. He termed Friday’s match against them as a special one for him that will be played at the Allianz
Arena in Munich.
The star defender has been in great run of form since he joined the Bavarian giants in the summer transfer window. He has settled in very quickly and is now regarded as a key figure in Jupp Heynckes’ side. He has played in every
single league clash for Der FCB this term and also bagged his first goal for the club.
The centre-back is eagerly anticipating facing his old team members in the Bundesliga encounter at Die Roten’s turf. He claimed that it will be a delightful experience and revealed that he caught the eye of Bayern officials after
guiding Gladbach to a fourth place finish and a place in the UEFA Champions League.
"It is definitely a special game for me. My time at Gladbach was what opened the door to Bayern in the first place," the former Standard Liege, Juventude and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lille-OSC-c39800 player was quoted as saying in an interview.
The stopper stated that the hosts are in perfect shape and would want to go into the winter break with a victory. Team trainer Heynckes also lavished praise on his summer acquisition and said that Dante is his first-choice defender
if he is fully fit.
“We are in good shape and want to round off the first half of the season with a win," the 29-year-old mused.
"If Dante is fit and healthy, he plays,” the former Real Madrid, Athletic Bilbao and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Schalke-04-c39204 head coach added.
"I am fine with it, it is perfectly okay," the 2008 Belgian Pro League winner finally concluded.
The South American conceded that he is loving life in Munich and clarified that the cold conditions will not affect his impressive form.
