In an interview with German media spex, Russian tennis star Medvedev said that he is a super Bayern fan.
Medvedev said: "I fell in love with football when I was 12 years old and it all started there, but I liked Bayern earlier. I remember when I was 6 years old, Bayern was very strong at the beginning of the century and I always told my parents that Bayern's games had to be watched. ”
"I started to idolize some players and Bayern became more and more important in my life. <b>When I was reading, I put all my attention into it, I watched every game of Bayern, including friendly matches, even every training session, and I became a super Bayern fan. </b>”
"When my tennis is getting better and better, I have to take my attention off the football because I don't have that much time anymore, but I'm still watching Bayern every day, even when I'm on the tour. There's a social media account in Russia where you can see all the news about Bayern and I follow this account every day to see everything they post about Bayern, but I need to travel around a lot, so it's hard to watch all their games. ”
"When I don't need to train or don't have a game, I often try to find a channel to watch the live stream so that I don't miss a game. <b>Unfortunately, I haven't seen a single game at Allianz so far, and once I have enough time, I go to Munich to watch every game, or at least most of it. </b>”
Medvedev then added: "<b>I always have the number 33 printed on my shirt because I'm a huge fan of Mario Gomez</b> and when he plays for Bayern he does a lot of great things and I like him very much. He's my favorite player so far, just because he wears the number 33, so 33 is my favorite number. ”
Speaking about his favourite player today, Medvedev said: "Lewandowski, I admire his efforts in the game, and he has always been healthy and impressed by his mental qualities, I tried to take a similar approach in tennis. ”
Speaking about Kimmich, Medvedev said: "I still remember a Super Cup from the Guardiola era, I didn't know who Kimmich was at the time and I was amazed at his performance. Now he has grown into a good player. <b>You absolutely need a player like that to win games and titles, he is crucial to the success of the team, if Kimmich is not present, the probability of winning will drop and he can make a difference in the game. </b>”
Speaking about the slogan of mia san mia, Medvedev said: "I have to admit that it is difficult for someone like me who doesn't know German to really understand this sentence, it may mean differently to me than other people, but it doesn't matter, I know how important this sentence is for Bayern, it is the embodiment of the club's winning mentality, and I also say this sentence from time to time. ”
Medvedev finally said of Na Shuai, saying: "I am thrilled that Na Shuai has become Bayern coach, I have been following him from the beginning, he became manager of Hoffenheim at the age of 28, it is crazy. The manager has done an incredible job at Hoffenheim, he has helped the players grow into stars, you can see what he does in Leipzig, <b>I love the way he plays and I'm looking forward to him being at Bayern for a while and building a new era. </b>”
