“Must not become even more one-sided”

National player Ilkay Gündogan is concerned about developments in German football. “Of course I wish for the whole Bundesliga that BVB somehow manages to keep the league exciting,” said the professional from top English club Manchester City sports picture. For “the international reputation” this “must not become even more one-sided. But I think that it will be extremely difficult.”

Record champion Bayern Munich “seems to be extremely strong again,” said Gündogan, who had played for Borussia Dortmund before moving to England: “It looks even stronger than in recent years.” He himself “still watches German football regularly,” explained the midfielder. Basically, however, he notices “that interest in the Bundesliga is gradually decreasing here in England”.
