Change of captain at Leverkusen?
Will Kasper Hjulmand’s appointment as new Bayer Leverkusen head coach affect Robert Andrich’s position as captain?
The Dane, appointed as Erik ten Hag's successor earlier this week, was asked about the topic at his pre-match press conference ahead of Leverkusen's Matchday 3 curtain-raiser against Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday.
“When it comes to captaincy, we will form a team of captains," said the 53-year-old.
"We will build a strong group of captains. We need more captains and a strong leadership structure. Leadership is a team sport too."

Leverkusen go into the weekend in 12th place with just one point from their two Bundesliga fixtures so far this season, following a 2-1 defeat against Hoffenheim and a 3-3 draw with Werder Bremen in Ten Hag's only league games at the helm.
