""It's not an audition for the goalkeeper position, but a reward for good performances over a long period of time. That's why he's getting his home game here," Nagelsmann said of his decision to start Nubel."
""In the last few months, Alex has taken another step forward. He is loyal to Oli and is important for the goalkeeping team. We have to rotate a bit more to rest a few players.""
""I'm extremely happy, it's basically my living room! I can't wait to play here," Nubel said about playing in Stuttgart."
Julian Nagelsmann confirmed Oliver Baumann as Germany's starting goalkeeper for the World Cup. Alexander Nubel will play in a friendly against Ghana. Manuel Neuer retired from international football after Euro 2024. Marc-Andre ter Stegen, expected to take over, missed most of the season due to injury. Baumann has performed well, starting all World Cup qualifiers and keeping four clean sheets. Nagelsmann expressed confidence in Baumann and noted Nubel's importance to the team. Felix Nmecha's recovery from a knee injury for the World Cup is uncertain.
