Germany’s national team prepares for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America with a need for a fourth goalkeeper for training. Jonas Urbig, Bayern Munich’s goalkeeper, is included because he performed well at Bayern and in training with the national team, providing positive energy. He will train with the squad and support Manuel Neuer, Oliver Baumann, and Alexander Nübel. Bayern’s depth at goalkeeper is reflected by the fact that Urbig, Neuer, and Nübel are all on Bayern’s roster. Nübel recently spent three seasons on loan at VfB Stuttgart and will return briefly before another loan or a permanent move.
"“We wanted to have a fourth goalkeeper available for training, he did very well at Bayern and also in training with us. He gives good energy to the team,” Nagelsmann said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia)."
"Urbig will train with the squad and support fellow goalkeepers Manuel Neuer, Oliver Baumann, and Alexander Nübel. To highlight Bayern Munich's embarrassment of riches at the position, Urbig, Neuer, and Nübel are all roster members for the German Rekordmeister."
"Nübel has spent the last three seasons on loan with VfB Stuttgart, but will return briefly this summer before being loaned away again or being sold outright."
