Arrived at AS Monaco this summer, following a two-year loan from Bayern Munich, Alexander Nübel quickly took his place in the cages of the Principality club (20 appearances in all competitions). The German goalkeeper, used to rubbing shoulders with Manuel Neuer in Bavaria, quickly put pressure on the Rock. Maybe a little too much. And in a long interview given on a daily basis The team, the main concerned returned to the subject.

” Yes (he puts the pressure on himself, Editor’s note), and it’s always been like that. I have had this problem since Paderborn. I try to gain patience, but it’s not that easy. With the years and the accumulation of matches, I am improving on that. I have to find a balance: to be focused while being relaxed, let go of the 25-year-old goalkeeper before moving on to the different pressure between Bayern and ASM. I was under pressure there, but Monaco are also a big club known all the way to the United States. In both cases, it is very strong. But it’s always me who puts the greatest pressure on myself. Of course the media coverage isn’t the same when you play for Bayern, but the media pressure doesn’t come from. It comes from your partners or from yourself. ”
