Olympic champion Alexandra Popp talked about the Bundesliga's future. She called for better setups and pay for players.
Alexandra Popp plays a big role in the German women's national team. She shared ideas on a podcast about how the Bundesliga is growing. She said the league needs changes to compete better.
Popp stressed the need for good infrastructure. To draw top players, they should focus only on football. This means a minimum salary and better places to play, like pitches with heat and lights.
She liked the new teams Hamburger SV and Union Berlin. They have good fans and play well. But German teams still trail clubs like Barcelona and Lyon in Europe.
Popp spoke about social media's downsides for players. People judge without knowing the full story. She listens to advice from people she knows who understand football. She skips mean comments online.
