Joshua Kimmich, the Bayern Munich midfielder, speaks on the upcoming UEFA Nations League Final Four against Portugal, highlighting respect for the team despite Germany's historical advantage. He points out the importance of focusing on the available players rather than dwelling on injuries. As he approaches his 100th cap for Germany, Kimmich reflects on his career and the team's journey, acknowledging the ups and downs while expressing hope for future successes, especially in preparation for the World Cup. His experience and positive attitude aim to inspire the squad during this challenging time.
"That's not a topic for us in the team. It's a new team compared to the one from 2021. Both teams have changed. It'll be a completely different game."
"Of course it's bitter and annoying that there are so many injuries, but there's no point in talking about that because the players who are at home won't help us. We still have a lot of quality and enough good players to win both games."
"It's a big honor to have played this many games for Germany. It shows that I've been showing a very good level over the past 9-10 years, and thankfully also rarely injured."
"We felt at the EUROs that there was a connection between the team and the country, even though we didn't win the title. That's the goal."
