FSV Mainz 05 has pointed out to the national team in a humorous way to nomination from Jonathan Burkardt. After his decisive goal in the 3-0 win against FC St. Pauli, the Mainz used a telephone emoji in a post on platform X and national coach Julian Nagelsmann addressed directly: "Julian, thank you for your call." This amusing remark shows the extraordinary form and meaning of the young player, who showed outstanding achievements in the last games of the season.

The 24-year-old Burkardt has already scored five goals in the season so far. Despite his impressive achievements in the Bundesliga, Nagelsmann has so far not been ready to nominate him for the national team. Burkardt himself commented on this situation at Sky and said: "The national team is a dream for every player. I try everything to be invited at some point." He refers to his goal of playing in the A-National team after he has only been able to run for the young teams. His self -confidence indicates that he firmly believes in his skills.

a missed call?

Burkardt has had to struggle with injury problems in the past, but now he shows that he has returned more than ever. The coach of Mainz, Bo Henriksen, believes that an invitation from the striker is long overdue and praises his protégé as a "a machine". Henriksen emphasizes that Burkardt is not only active in the penalty area, but also does a lot of work for his team. This view is shared by many fans and experts who are wondering why Burkardt was not taken into account in the upcoming international matches.

On Saturday evening, Burkardt also had the opportunity to speak in the Sky interview with Lothar Matthäus. He turned respectfully to the record national player with "Mr. Matthäus" and was proud to be part of such an interview. Matthäus praised Burkardt for his fighting spirit and his ability to come back after injuries. "If you have so many injuries, then you also go out strengthened," said Matthew and spoke of the psychological strength that a player can develop from such experiences.

The discussion about Burkardt could be based on the different expectations and the pressure that is on a successful player who fights back after injuries. While some media and fans are pushing for a nomination, Nagelsmann has so far remained skeptical. This situation raises questions about why Burkardt was not taken into account in the selection for the international matches against Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Netherlands.

The coming days will show whether the humorous requests from Mainz will have an impact on the decisions of the national coach. For Burkardt, the hope remains that his good shape and support of his trainer will ultimately be successful. His will to serve the national team is undeniable, and the fans are excited to see whether the next call could take place soon.
