Although striker Patrik Schick, thanks to his shooting performance in the Leverkusen jersey, attracts the attention of larger clubs and speculates about his transfer, the Czech football team does not think about leaving.
“Of course it’s nice to read how they connect me with big clubs. But in Leverkusen I’m really, very happy and I want to join the Champions League with Bayer. I like life in Germany. At the moment it’s absolutely not a topic for me to think of another club, “told Bild am Sonntag Schick, who scored the 17th goal of the German league this season in a 2: 2 draw with Union Berlin on Saturday.
Take a look at the match summary in which Schick has scored the 17th goal of the season:
After coming from AS AS last year, Rome signed a treaty in Leverkusen until 2025, which, according to the German media, does not contain an exit clause. “Everyone knows I’m under contract. And I would never have a problem with the club to push through,” said the 25-year-old, who is second in the Bundesliga scorers behind Robert Lewandowski of Bayern Munich (20 goals).
Schick is fourth in the ranking of the best shooters of European competitions who are fighting for the Golden Football, with the same balance as the French star Karim Benzema from Real Madrid.
Schick praises the collaboration with the German talent Florian Wirtz, who already has 52 Bundesliga matches and 11 goals at the age of 18. “I can’t wish for anything better than having a player like Flo behind us. We’re tuned to the same wave in football, it works great for us together. He’s an extraordinary player and a huge talent. I knew that when I came to Leverkusen in 2020 “But I had no idea that he would be so good at this young age,” said the Czech national team member of the offensive midfielder, whose price on the football market, according to the Transfermarkt website, is 70 million euros (1.7 billion crowns).
This week, Schick was one of the three FIFA finalists for the most beautiful goal of 2021 with a long-distance goal from the opening match of the European Championship against Scotland. “I am extremely proud of that. Being in the 11-member selection and then among the top three is a great success, “said Schick, who competes for the Ferenc Puskas award with Argentine Erik Lamella and Iranian Mahdi Taremi. The winner will be announced on January 17 in Zurich.
