Bayern Munich striker Mario Gomez believes that the Bundesliga is the best domestic league in Europe based on the German clubs' performance in the Champions League this season.
The Bavarian giants, defending German champions Borussia Dortmund and Schalke all have qualified for the last 16 as group winners.
"All [three German teams] deserved to win their groups," he told UEFA's official website. "It's nice to see that the Bundesliga is alive and catching up with the very best leagues.
"In terms of strength across the board, I'd even say it's the best at the moment. The top teams are all performing strongly in Europe."
Bayern are away at Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
