Reports: no World Cup snub? Nagelsmann takes Bundesliga star after all
Reports: no World Cup snub? Nagelsmann takes Bundesliga star after all Which German goalkeepers are going to the World Cup? Before Julian Nagelsmann announces the squad tomorrow, Thursday, there already seems to be clarity on that.
Alongside Manuel Neuer and Oliver Baumann, Alexander Nübel is also expected to be part of the German squad and travel as the number three goalkeeper. This is being reported by both 'Bild' and 'Sky' reporter Florian Plettenberg, contradicting a report by the 'Münchner Abendzeitung'. The newspaper had reported yesterday that Neuer does not have the best relationship with Nübel and that the VfB goalkeeper would therefore not be called up by Nagelsmann.
Instead, the decision would have come down to Finn Dahmen and Noah Atubolu. If Nagelsmann does call up a fourth goalkeeper, as 'SZ' had already reported, Jonas Urbig is said to have a good chance of being part of the World Cup squad.
