„I’m fired up for it“: Goretzka explains special treble feeling at Bayern | OneFootball

FC Bayern have the chance to win the historic treble this season, something they have only achieved twice in the club’s entire history. Leon Goretzka has a very special feeling about the upcoming games, as he has now revealed

He believes the treble is definitely possible in his last season as an FC Bayern player, and he already experienced it in 2020, when he was without fans in the stadium at the final tournament in Lisbon due to the coronavirus pandemic

It’s also something that still hurts Goretzka to this day: he wasn’t able to celebrate the best season of his career with the fans, but „only“ in a small circle within the team

Goretzka feels a special spirit

The player, who could theoretically have transferred in the winter and had offers from Atletico, among others, decided to stay because he already had the feeling there that he was part of a special team in a special season. And so far, that has proven to be true

In an interview with the club’s own magazine Säbener 51, Goretzka not only looked back on his long time as a Bayern professional, but also expressed his ambitions for the upcoming games

The midfielder is certain that the big one is possible. „I’m really keen to repeat 2020, but this time with our fans. That would be something completely different. There’s no guarantee of winning the Champions League, but it’s that special feeling that you experience maybe once or twice in your career. We have a team in which everything works together seamlessly. We have individual quality and at the same time this hunger, this willingness to run,“ said the international

The next hurdle is the second leg of the Champions League against PSG on Wednesday. Bayern narrowly lost the first leg in Paris 4:5.
