Liverpool midfielder Sobosloj will face his old club Leipzig in the midweek Champions League match. In an interview with Leipzig's official website, the 23-year-old Hungarian midfielder expressed his gratitude to Leipzig and talked about his life at Liverpool and the upcoming game.
Sobosloe said, "I feel great. Liverpool is a great club with great fans, a first-class stadium and a top team in the Premier League. The competition in the Premier League is fierce and every game is exciting and of a very high standard. It's very fun to play here and every mistake can be punished immediately."
Speaking about the upcoming match against Leipzig, Sobosloe said, "This match is certainly special for me. I spent two and a half wonderful years in Leipzig, met a lot of people and am very grateful for that experience and the many emotions that came with winning two German Cups. Leipzig made me who I am today, and without my experience growing up there, I probably wouldn't be playing in the best league in the world."
Sobosloj also revealed that he is in close contact with Leipzig's Henrichs and is in touch with Orban and Gurasic through the national team. He is looking forward to seeing many of the others in Wednesday's game, although this time they will be opponents.
Sobosloe is impressed with Leipzig's development in recent years. He believes that the team is firmly at the top of the Bundesliga and is one of the favorites to win the title every year. Leipzig has produced many good players, which is a remarkable feature of the club.
In addition, Sobosloj spoke about his former coach Jurgen Klopp who is about to start a new job in the Red Bulls soccer department. He said, "Red Bull is really lucky to have Jürgen's support. He's a great guy, an absolute soccer expert and has been successful everywhere he's been. I wish him all the best as I am very grateful to him for bringing me to Liverpool at the time and giving me the opportunity to play at the top level."
Commenting on Wednesday's match, Sobosloe said that both teams have a chance to succeed in this season's Champions League, regardless of the result. He believes that both teams have strong squads and the game will be a huge challenge for Liverpool. Despite Leipzig losing their first two matches, Sobosloj believes they are still a very strong team and this match will be one of Liverpool's toughest tasks. He hopes to finally bring the victory back to Liverpool.
