Leicester City's Premier League title victory in 2016 made the club famous across the world yet on Thursday they will face an opponent who has scaled an even higher peak.
Mario Gotze is a key player for a PSV Eindhoven side who aim to end Leicester’s European hopes as they chase glory on three fronts. As well as trying to reach the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League, PSV are four points behind leaders Ajax in the Dutch top flight and also face the Amsterdam club in the Dutch Cup Final on Sunday.
Yet Gotze is used to such intense competition.
