Burkart: Kane s active defense has helped the team a lot. I was only a challenger in the German team.

November 8th: German forward Burkat moved to Frankfurt this summer and immediately showed his ability here. He has scored 9 goals in 14 games. In an interview with Sky Sports Germany, Burkart discussed his changing role at Eintracht Frankfurt, his place in the national team, his ambitious goals and Harry Kane.

-On his change in role as a striker after moving from Mainz to Eintracht Frankfurt:

Burkat: "There are less long balls, less high-altitude confrontations - at least in most cases. And I am now more of a frontline player involved in the coordination of the organization. The forward. Our game is different overall, so my positioning has also changed."

-On Frankfurt coach Topmoeller:

Burkat: "I do think he has a special ability in this area, and he brings a lot of good ideas. It also includes his own experience as a striker and looks at the whole situation from a striker's perspective. He always has one or two good tips about movement that help our game, which is why I come here because I know he can combine very, very well with the forwards. "

-About his current position in the German national team:

Burkart: "I am just trying to perform as well as possible, give my best in training, and then I hope to win again in the next game. But I am very happy to be there and I am already looking forward to this time.”

-About the upcoming 2026 World Cup:

Burkart: “It will be a dream, but of course it is. All German players should have ambitious goals. I hope I can maintain my current form so that I can participate in the World Cup."

-On Harry Kane and his characteristics:

Burkat: "I think he works particularly well without the ball. Special. He is involved in a lot of defense and is very active. When the best striker in the Bundesliga returns to defense like this, it brings a lot to the team. In addition, he shoots very well and has good vision when he gets the ball. I think he is a good reference and a good one. A great role model."

-On what would have to happen for him to use social media:

Burkart: "I don't know what would have to happen for me to be there - but who knows."
