According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Jean-Botz, the French goalkeeper currently playing for Como, is close to renewing his contract, and the player hopes to play in the Champions League.
Jean-Botz was an unknown when he joined. Although he came through the Lille academy, he never played for the French club because the starting goalkeeper was Maignan, who was almost impossible to replace. He was then loaned to Mouscron and subsequently bought outright. At Royal Antwerp, he was the starting goalkeeper for four consecutive seasons before losing his position.
Later, when he moved from Belgium to Italy to join ambitious Como, the move seemed almost risky. As a result, he played every minute of every game this season, attracting the attention of several clubs, including Napoli. However, he will remain in Lombardy, as his contract has been renewed.
Botz said: "This is very important for the city and the fans, and it's wonderful to be able to achieve this. We are not champions yet, but it's important to celebrate at this moment. Many players have never played in European competitions, and this is very important. We can also enjoy our holidays. When I came here, I wanted to play in European competitions as soon as possible. The team was 16th in the league at the time, and it was a big dream for me. A season and a half later, we are here, and Fàbregas saw all this long ago. We have improved a lot game by game. Our dream is not just to play in European competitions, but in the Champions League." Today, Botz celebrates his 31st birthday.
