Mario Gotze has described Pep Guardiola as "fantastic" after meeting the new Bayern Munich coach and is sure the Spaniard can take his game to the next level.
The Germany attacking midfielder has joined the Champions League winners from Borussia Dortmund for a fee of €37m, landing just as Guardiola himself starts work at the Allianz Arena.
And Gotze is positive over his move and has warm words about the former Barcelona tactician who will be his boss.
"My belief is that I can take the next step in my career at Bayern", the 21-year-old explained to his new club’s official site.

"Fantastic", he added, when asked about his impression of Guardiola.
"Guardiola has panache and a philosophy with which I can do a lot."
Guardiola has big shoes to fill in his predecessor Jupp Heynckes.
Last season Bayern Munich did the treble, winning the Bundesliga, German Cup and Champions League; it is a feat Guardiola has already accomplished though, albeit at Barcelona.
