As a result, everything is a little wilder and more open, ”said the 26-year-old from table leaders FC Chelsea, explaining her opinion in a conversation with“ tz ”and“ Münchner Merkur ”(Saturday edition).
The training and the requirements are a little different than in Germany, which is why she had to switch from FC Bayern Munich to London last summer.
Leupolz wishes her former club, where she played for six years, the championship this season.
"Bayern play great football, so I am very confident that they will knock Wolfsburg from the throne this year," said the midfielder.
