After Germany's 1-0 away win over Northern Ireland in the World Cup preliminaries, coach Nagelsmann talked about Neuer's return to the national team in an interview with RTL.

Due to the absence of No. 1 goalkeeper Ter Stegen due to injury, there have been ongoing discussions about Bayern goalkeeper Neuer's return to the national team. Nagels said: "Obviously, Bowman has not been affected by these discussions. But I believe anyone can understand that this is not completely indifferent to him. In the past ten games, we have not lost any game due to goalkeeper errors or poor goalkeeper performance."

"This discussion is not beneficial to anyone. , including to his own detriment. He needs to stay calm at Bayern in order to continue to perform well. As far as I know, Neuer is close to retirement. Still, I am surprised why we spend three hours every week discussing this issue."

"There is no doubt that we have no goalkeeper problem. If everything does not go well, the situation may change, but this discussion is meaningless at the moment."source:7m cn free
