Leno Reverse: Nagelsmann complains of goalkeeper because of a lack of guarantee of use!

The focus of the discussion in German football is currently the goalkeeper Bernd Leno, who was sharply criticized by national coach Julian Nagelsmann because of his decision not to return to the national team. Leno, who is currently playing for FC Fulham in England, decided against a nomination because he could not be guaranteed to be used. This caused a lot of conversation, especially as a nail man in the Bosnian city of Zenica on this topic.

"Bernd has decided. The trainer added that Leno, who is now 32 years old, was ripe enough to make such decisions. Nevertheless, he showed that the possibility of being called back to the national team always exists. "If he plays outstanding and not everyone else, the door can continue," said Nagelsmann.

The background of the waiver

The national coach explained that he originally considered Leno as number three for the national team, especially after the injury-related failure of Marc-André Ter Stegen. However, Leno himself saw no benefit in playing the guarantee on an operation in the DFB team. "I would rather train in London," said the experienced goalkeeper after talks with Nagelsmann and goalkeeper coach Andreas Kronenberg.

In the talks, some demands of Leno had arisen that Nagelsmann could not meet. "It is relatively simple. He made demands that I could not meet for internal reasons," said Nagelsmann. These internal reasons related to the considerations of the coaching team, which did not allow a short -term solution. So although Leno got an interesting perspective on the way, he ultimately decided against a return to the national team.

debut of the new goalkeeper

In the upcoming Nation League games, Nagelsmann will now have to rely on other talents. Against Bosnia-Herzegovina on Friday at 8:45 p.m. and in the following game against the Netherlands in Munich, Alexander Nübel, who is currently playing at VfB Stuttgart, and then Oliver Baumann from TSG Hoffenheim will be in goal for the DFB team. Both goalkeepers will celebrate their debut in these games and have great expectations to justify the coach's trust.

The situation around Bernd Leno once again shows how significant the balance between the players' personal decisions and the expectations of the national team is. Even if the door is not completely closed for a return, the options for Leno and the DFB team remain limited in this decisive phase. While the football world is preparing for the upcoming decisive games, it remains to be seen how the positions within the team will continue to change.
