Karabatic Wants "More Perfect Season"

Nikola Karabatic was the special guest and helping hand at the Men’s Champions League Draw for the 2007/08 season. The left back player of CL winning THW Kiel was handed over the Top Scorer Award as well for last season. Paul Bray, moderator of the evening, asked Nikola about his achievement.

Karabatic, who enjoyed the draw and picked well for his team...Paul Bray: You had an amazing season: won the Champions League together with the top scorer award, you won the German Championship and the German Cup and you were also chosen best player of the league. What can be your next goal?

Nikola Karabatic: It was a pretty good season, we won almost everything possible, but we lost the World Championship semi-final against Germany. It could have been more perfect…

Paul Bray: Next year you can try again in Beijing, maybe…

Nikola Karabatic: It will be a great year for us: Olympic Games, European Championship and Champions League. We will have a lot to do; we hope to win all of these. That is the reason I signed a new contract, we still have objectives with my club.

Paul Bray: You have Omeyer, another French player in Kiel. Did he help you to feel at home?

Nikola Karabatic: I moved to Kiel two years ago and I felt at home already after 4 months. It is a good club, good managers… It is perfect for a player to be in Kiel. I hope we will sign even more French players as I always speak only German and at the end I forget French.
