Nübel wants to go to the end of his loan then win at Bayern
First disappointing and then much more reassuring, Alexander Nübel had a mixed first third of the season with AS Monaco, where he was ready until June 2023 by Bayern Munich. The 25-year-old goalkeeper intends to continue growing in the Principality and in Ligue 1, before returning to Bavaria in the shoes of number 1.
Despite a mixed start to the season, Alexander Nübel is not lacking in ambition. Landed in the Principality with the label of “future Neuer”, the goalkeeper barred by said Manuel Neuer at Bayern Munich – for whom the German international hopeful (17 caps) only played four games in 2020-2021 – experienced first complicated outings with AS Monaco. Before raising his level lately.
Eleventh in Ligue 1 with the Rocher club, and first in his Europa League group ahead of Real Sociedad, Nübel gradually reassured himself of his qualities, spread over four seasons at Schalke 04 and then during his stay in Bavaria. “I am not unhappy but my statistics could be better. I am not yet where I would like to be,” admitted the imposing German in an interview with Kicker Sunday.
A career plan already drawn up
At 25, Alexander Nübel says what direction he wants to give his career. Loaned for two seasons in Monaco, the doorman never called by the Mannschaft can possibly be repatriated by the Bavarian giant at the end of the first year. A scenario that the Monegasque number 1 obviously does not envisage.
“It is not my plan or that of Bayern, he assures. In Monaco, I play two high-level matches a week, that was my goal. And it will also be mine when I return to Munich. “Understand here, succeed Manuel Neuer in the Munich goal. Or get ahead of him in the hierarchy, if the legendary 35-year-old goalkeeper is still in Bavaria by the time Nübel returns.
