Luka Lochoshvili settles in at FC Koln and looks forward to top opponents
FC Koln's first external summer signing, Luka Lochoshvili, has already felt very comfortable after the first training sessions. The Georgian emphasized after the Sunday morning session in the training camp in Kitzbühel: „I have very positive feelings and am happy to be here, in this jersey, to play for this great and tradition-rich club.“
How does Lochoshvili fit into the team?
Lochoshvili brings not only physical strength and aggression to the pitch but also mental leadership. „I want to take on a leadership role through my play and performance“, he said. The 26-year-old already has international experience and wants to use this to help the young players in the team.
Why is he looking forward to strong opponents?
The defender was particularly motivated by the prospect of playing against top strikers like Harry Kane from Bayern Munich. „The stronger the opponent, the more I enjoy the games“, explained Lochoshvili. In his first friendly for FC Koln, he already scored from a corner.
What are his goals for the season?
Lochoshvili wants to continue scoring goals and helping the team, especially in competitive matches. Last season, he still scored five goals for 1. FC Nuremberg. „I want to help the team – of course, preferably in competitive matches, when it really counts“, he said. The team is working intensively to be prepared for the challenges of the Bundesliga.
