Corporate Figure Takes Center Stage During Garetzky's Challenging Period - Individual from Company Plays Pivotal Role in Goretzka's Tumultuous Period
Get ready for Leon Goretzka to make waves at FC Bayern Munich in the upcoming season! According to the 30-year-old football star, Vincent Kompany is his Go-To guy in the club. "He's the heavyweight champ at Bayern, pure and simple," Goretzka declared before the epic showdown against Benfica Lisbon, recalling a topsy-turvy year for him personally.
One might have expected rough sledding at the start as things were on the rocks from the get-go. But then, around mid-season, Goretzka found himself back in the limelight. "Truth be told, Kompany seemed to have my back from the start, and that unwavering support kept me going all season long," Goretzka shared, and he didn't mince his words.
Rumors swirled that Bayern was considering trading Goretzka, despite his contract running until 2026. Undeterred, he dug in his heels and fought toe-to-toe with the club bigwigs. By end of the year, he had scored a victory, making a triumphant return to the national squad!
"Kompany's been a great sounding board, buddy and ally," Goretzka emphasized about his bond with the coach. "I've got no doubts I'll be able to deliver for the team next season just as I did last season."
New deal on the horizon?
So, will we see Goretzka with the Reds beyond June 30, 2026*? "If the club puts a new contract on the table, it'd be a nod to my hard work. And I'd certainly listen with an open ear," Goretzka hinted, but added with a coy smile: "Not a peep yet, but there's more than just the Club World Cup on my mind right now."
A nostalgic moment in Charlotte rang loud and true: "I'm as happy here at Bayern as it gets."
