Bayern Munich defender Lucas Hernandez has really seen nothing, but success since moving to Germany from Atletico Madrid.

Hernandez credits the team’s competitive nature for why Bayern Munich has been able to remain among the world’s best clubs.

“I’m a competitor. We’re all competitors in this team. That is our focus. It’s the way we think. We won everything there was to win a year-and-a-half ago. We’re even hungrier than we were then. That’s simply how we are and that is reflected out on the pitch,” said Hernandez in a recent interview with Bundesliga.com.

Hernandez acknowledged that being every opponent’s primary target can make things difficult, but knows that it is a challenge that the squad will always embrace.

“Sometimes it’s difficult as every team wants to beat Bayern Munich. But we know everything is in our hands. If we play in a concentrated manner and perform as we can, we know we will win,” Hernandez said.
