"I had a close exchange with Toni Di Salvo [U21 coach]. He's always happy when his players make it to the senior national team, but for his mission, it's not optimal when his players are away. So we have to find a healthy compromise. Said did well, it was his first time with us. He didn't have many training sessions, but he made a good impression. I spoke to him at the beginning of the week and we decided he would join the U21s as they have an important game in Georgia."
"Bayern Munich fans caught wind that club starboy Lennart Karl was not called up to the German national football team's senior squad and instead entered through the U-21s."
"Letting the kids prove themselves is a great way to aid their development. Having the likes of Karl, El Mala, Tom Bischof, and others in the senior team in a few years is an exciting prospect."
Bayern Munich fans noticed that Lennart Karl was not called up to the senior German national team and instead entered through the U-21s. Julian Nagelsmann reported a close exchange with U21 coach Toni Di Salvo and said Said El Mala made a positive impression during his first senior training sessions. Nagelsmann and Di Salvo agreed that sending Said to the U21s was a healthy compromise because the U21s have an important game in Georgia and Di Salvo prefers keeping his players available. The decision aims to balance immediate team needs with long-term player development and future senior prospects.
