Mario Gotze insists Arsenal and Barcelona are his favourite teams- Bundesliga news
Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mario Gotze has claimed that Premier League side http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 and European champions Barcelona are his favourite two teams. He stated that he loves the style of play of both sides and the brilliant attacking
football they play. The player also hailed current http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 manager Pep Guardiola stating that he is mainly responsible for turning Barcelona into the world’s best team.
The Dortmund midfielder has been heavily linked to the likes of Arsenal, Barcelona and Real Madrid in the past few months. The Gunners reportedly made a bid in this summer’s transfer window to sign a replacement for Barcelona bound
Cesc Fabregas.
Gotze has carried on with his sensational performances from last season and has been brilliant for both club and country. The player has shown his class in the recent Euro 2012 qualifiers while playing for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 and surely will
be a target for many clubs in the summer next year.
The German international heaped praise on Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola and stated that the tactician has guided the Catalans to become the best team in the world in his reign. He admitted that he likes the way Arsenal and Barcelona
play as they are attacking and creative in their approach.
The attacking midfielder has already hinted that he could leave at the end of the season, following former academy product http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuri-Sahin-c28251. Gotze claimed that he would love to play for a top European club in the future as he wants to
win trophies.
“Guardiola did not play in exactly the same position as me, so in that sense he is not my direct icon so far as players are concerned. But as a coach, the philosophy he imprints on his team is one of the main reasons for the 12
titles they have won in three years. My favourites are Arsenal and Barcelona,” he concluded.
Mario Gotze has so far made 55 appearances for the club so far and has scored 10 goals in the process. The 19-year old also has 10 international caps to his name.
