"Bayern Munich midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović offered some words of support for teammate and mentor Leon Goretzka. While Pavlović is growing into his role for club and country, the veteran Goretzka - who once was in the same shoes - has a contract that is up at the end of the season, and it is looking likelier and likelier that he will not be getting an extension."
""Leon supported me when I joined the first team. I spoke to him a lot and he gave me tips. He's always been there for me and I'm grateful to him. He's a great footballer and person," Pavlović said ahead of this week's Champions League match against PSV (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). "As for everything else, it's the decision of the club and Leon himself. I can't say much about that.""
"Goretzka's path looks like it has run its course at FC Bayern. But the club has found a worthy successor from its own academy in Pavlović.

Aleksandar Pavlović offered public support for teammate and mentor Leon Goretzka ahead of a Champions League match. Pavlović credited Goretzka with supporting him when he joined the first team, citing frequent conversations, tips, and gratitude for Goretzka's presence. Goretzka's contract expires at the end of the season and an extension appears increasingly unlikely. Pavlović said contract decisions rest with the club and Goretzka and declined further comment. Bayern has promoted Pavlović from its academy and views him as a worthy successor to Goretzka.
