FC Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka, known for his impressive performances on the pitch, recently displayed his unwavering support for his youth club VfL Bochum during the first leg of the relegation play-off against Fortuna Düsseldorf.

Amidst the fervent atmosphere at the Ruhrstadion in Bochum, where Goretzka’s football journey kickstarted, the player could be seen sporting an old VfL jersey and passionately cheering on the home team.

Goretzka’s ties to Bochum run deep, having commenced his footballing endeavors with the club’s youth team at the tender age of 6 before transitioning to the senior squad in 2012. His subsequent stints at FC Schalke and FC Bayern only bolstered his career.

Despite experiencing a somewhat lackluster season personally and witnessing disappointment with Bayern’s league results, Goretzka’s loyalty to his former club remains unwavering.

For VfL Bochum, the stakes are high as they battle to secure their place in the league following a dip that led to their relegation zone position at the Bundesliga season’s conclusion.

While the initial fixture ended in a 0-3 loss, Bochum faces a daunting task in overturning the deficit in the second leg against Düsseldorf. Goretzka is poised to continue his support when the teams clash at the Merkur-Spielarena on Monday, 27th May at 20:30.
