Mexico City (AP) – Captain Lukas Hradecky definitely wants to win a title with Bayer Leverkusen in the near future.
“The same applies next season: We have to keep improving. And if you were third last year, it will be difficult without a title,” said the goalkeeper in an interview with the German Press Agency: “The main goal is always to be among the first Fourth to come. We’ve achieved that. But at some point you have to take the last step, that you win a title. We have quality. And mentally and in terms of team spirit, we have developed very well this season. If it continues like this, it will be it’s realistic for me to dream of a title.”
The Finn is thinking more about the cup competitions than the German championship. “In the championship we are certainly outsiders, like everyone else. The cup or maybe the Europa League are definitely more for us,” he said: “Unfortunately, I don’t see that Bayern is weakening either.” In this regard, the current unrest in Munich gives him little hope. “You never give up hope,” said the 32-year-old: “But you know Bayern. They start the new season 3-0 and 4-0 and then it’s back to normal. I don’t want any declarations of war either formulate. We just have to let our actions speak for themselves.”
