Bas Dost: 'Wolfsburg not a small club anymore'

Wolfsburg striker Bas Dost believes that it is time for his team to show they are no longer a small team.

Wolfsburg forward Bas Dost has said that his side need to show their European prowess as they face PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League tomorrow.

The Dutch international has revealed that returning to his homeland has no significance, and he is more concerned about helping the DFB-Pokal winners progress from the group stages.

The 26-year-old told reporters: "It's time for the world to recognise that Wolfsburg is not a small club anymore.

"I've played against PSV eight times and scored just once but what is in the past is no longer relevant. The fact we are playing against a Dutch team is nothing special for me. I am preparing as I always do.

"The only special thing is that I see players with whom I play in the national team. That's all. I prepare the same way as against Hoffenheim, Dortmund or Bayern Munich."

Dost has scored seven goals in 11 appearances in all competitions for Wolfsburg this season and has 24 goals so far in the calendar year.
