Hertha Berlin defender Sebastian Langkamp has admitted that the club's focus this season is the Bundesliga.

Langkamp said that with two recent relegations all the players are aware of what must be done to keep Hertha in the top flight.

"The league is the primary goal," Bundesliga.de quotes Langkamp as saying. "This is because of the last few years with the two relegations.

"When you are promoted you can always surprise other teams, as Frankfurt managed last season. But we will not think ahead. The club must be stabilised in the league.

"We need to create a good foundation, and get as many points as possible as soon as we can. Realistically there is only one goal, and that's the league."

Langkamp arrived at Hertha from Augsburg in the summer.
