Goalkeeper excited for his first time visiting the US

Max Weiß was excited to touch down on US soil for his first visit stateside as the Clarets landed in the US for their pre-season tour.Taking to the Paycor Stadium, home of Cincinnati Bengals, the goalkeeper thoroughly enjoyed the first training session and being back with squad.

FEELING GOOD TO BE BACK

“It felt good to be fair. It’s a little hot here but I think we managed that pretty well.

“We showed some good quality today, so it was a good start.

“I’m very happy to see the lads and be back in the locker room. We had a 5-week break, so you enjoy the time off and spending time with family and friends, but when it comes to an end, you’re really, really looking forward to coming back again. We enjoy the time on the pitch.”

ENJOYING THE US

“I’m very excited, it’s my first time in the US so I’m maybe a little bit more excited than the other boys! I’m really looking forward to seeing the quality of the teams out here. I want to just enjoy the cities and the atmosphere & vibe in the US. It’s going to be amazing.”

TRAINING AT THE BENGALS STADIUM

“It’s unreal! It’s like a whole other world. The stadium is incredible and they have a great view from the training pitch. When you see the gym and the locker room, it’s unreal - we can really enjoy it here.

“When you see what weights the NFL players are lifting in the gym it’s...wow! Some of our boys are pretty good in the gym but that’s another level!”
