Joshua Kimmich supports Leon Goretzka's potential return to the German national team, highlighting his club form despite Goretzka's recent decline in national appearances. Under coach Julian Nagelsmann, Goretzka has not featured since 2023 and was omitted from the EURO 2024 squad. Kimmich believes that Goretzka, considered one of the best players, deserves another chance, particularly as the German team gears up for the Nations League in March. Goretzka's impressive stats at Bayern Munich indicate he is ready to compete at the international level again.
Kimmich stated, 'The best players will hopefully always be called up. He's currently one of the best,' in support of Goretzka's return to the national team.
Goretzka's international appearances have severely dried up under Nagelsmann, last appearing in friendlies in 2023, leading to his exclusion from EURO 2024.
Despite being overlooked for the national team, Goretzka's club performance remains impressive in key metrics, suggesting he deserves another chance with Die Mannschaft.
Kimmich's push for Goretzka's recall could lead to opportunities in the upcoming Nations League games, particularly important as Germany faces Italy.
