Borussia Dortmund skipper, Emre Can, has fired back at his critics following their qualification for the Champions League final. Can, who previously played for Liverpool, admitted that he felt a greater level of respect during his time in England.
Speaking after their semi-final victory over PSG, Can stated, “When I play abroad, particularly in England, I have a completely different status. I’m not sure why, but maybe they value my performances more or appreciate me as a player. In Germany, there has always been more criticism.”
Can also took the opportunity to silence his detractors, saying, “There are many people who constantly talk and claim that I’m not that good. Well, now they have to keep quiet and watch me perform in the final. We are an exceptional team and the matches we’ve played have been incredible.”
Highlighting their defensive prowess, Can proudly declared, “We didn’t concede a single goal against PSG, which is a testament to the quality we possess. I’m immensely proud to be leading this team as captain. It’s a mix of excitement and pride because our hard work has paid off. Now, we’re in the final and our aim is to win it.”
