Bosz reflects on Leverkusen tenure: "It was a great time, right up until the last day"

The visit of PSV Eindhoven to Bayer Leverkusen will be an emotional one for the visitors' coach Peter Bosz. He managed the Bundesliga club for three seasons between 2018 and 2021.

“Leverkusen is one of the clubs where I've worked the longest. It was a great time, right up until the last day. I enjoyed it, except for the day I was fired," Bosz said in his press conference.

“I've had a great time here with great people, players, and staff. Once a year, I meet with people from Bayer 04,” the 61-year-old added, with a smile etched across his face.

Furthermore, Bosz revealed that he was in attendance at the BayArena in April 2024 when Leverkusen clinched a the Bundesliga title with a 5-0 win over Werder Bremen.

“I was in the stadium for the championship game against Bremen in 2024. I absolutely had to see it. The football was fantastic, the positional play was outstanding," Bosz said. 

Now in charge of the reigning Eredivisie champions, Bosz will have to lay his past loyalties to the side as they go in hunt of three crucial points against Die Werkself.
