Fernández expressed his happiness at helping the team after scoring his first goal. "It was important to get the win and on top of that, I managed to score a goal," he said. Fernández highlighted the importance of having compatriots amongst his teammates, saying "It's important to have people from your own country at the club. We talk a lot about how we can best help the team."
The addition of Facundo Medina and Miguel Gutiérrez, who joined from Marseille and Napoli respectively, has given Leverkusen a strong Spanish-speaking contingent at the club. Carles Martínez, who arrived from Toulouse in the summer, has brought his possession-based game to the BayArena. With six goals in their last 135 Bundesliga minutes, Leverkusen appear ready to dazzle.
The team's Spanish-speaking reset is evident, with players like Fernández, Medina, and Gutiérrez all contributing to the team's success. Bayer Leverkusen will face Bundesliga leaders Augsburg in their Matchday 3 clash, looking to continue their winning streak and build on their confidence.
