On August 23, German Sky Sports commentator Lothar Matthäus commented on the selection for Germany’s number one goalkeeper following Manuel Neuer’s retirement.
According to Sky Sports, the German Football Association has decided to make Marc-André ter Stegen Germany’s temporary first-choice goalkeeper. Therefore, “Ter Stegen” will start in the upcoming games against Hungary and the Netherlands in September and begin preparing for the 2026 World Cup.
In response, Matthäus said: “In my opinion, Alexander Nübel is better at goalkeeping, he can handle the role of Germany’s number one. Not only that, but he is also five years younger than ter Stegen.”
“You will see Nübel wearing the German shirt in the next three to four major tournaments. For me, Nübel is the best goalkeeper right now, and if I were the coach, I would consider making Nübel Germany’s number one in the next World Cup.”
