Mönchengladbach Eyes Europa League After Strong Bundesliga Run

Sporting director Roland Virkus emphasizes realistic goals as the team climbs to eighth place, just one point shy of European qualification.

Borussia Mönchengladbach has secured four wins in seven Bundesliga matches during the second half of the season, boosting hopes for European competition.
The team currently sits in eighth place, one point behind the Europa League qualification spots, with only Bayern Munich and Leverkusen earning more points in this stretch.
Sporting director Roland Virkus described a potential Europa League qualification as 'supercool' but tempered expectations for a return to the Champions League.
Virkus highlighted the strength of top Bundesliga clubs like Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, and RB Leipzig, noting that significant underperformance by these teams would be needed for Gladbach to compete at the highest level.
Stabilizing their position in the Bundesliga remains a priority for the club, with Virkus emphasizing steady progress toward consistent top-tier performance.
