Miroslav Klose

I could have moved to Russia, earned more money, and felt more relaxed. But I chose another option and joined Lazio.

An internship with Pep Guardiola would be a huge present.

A World Cup is always something special and simply indescribable - and being able to hold something in your hands at the end of it all is just incredible.

I enjoyed my biggest successes with the national team.

The national team was like a second family for me. I will always carry those 13 years of my life in my heart.

I am convinced that when the team plays well, the attackers will have chances to score - and that's why I will have the chance to score.

The coach told me that he has a lot of respect for me, and I am a player who has the ability to do anything I like - to score with both feet, to head well and to pass. To hear such words from a man like Voller gives me a lot of confidence and motivation.

Winning the World Cup was a dream come true.

I've always known what I was capable of, which is why I didn't lose my self-belief.

I've won fair-play prizes, but that's just my nature, my character. This is who I am, and I do not feel the need to hide the real me.

There's no better way for me to end my time with the German team than by winning the World Cup.

I was born in Poland, and then I was six years in France. I returned to Poland, and then, at the age of eight and a half, we came to Germany.
