The 25-year-old believes he must not take his position as a professional footballer for granted
Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka has opened up about the troubles of opposing right-wing politics in Germany, and has taken inspiration from those with a similar platform as his to help fight social injustice.
Goretzka explained that as a professional footballer, he has the ability to express his beliefs in a way that perhaps other occupations cannot.
The Germany international has come under the eye of the media lately after urging his Twitter followers to follow the official account of the Auschwitz concentration camp memorial.
