Jonas Urbig was able to keep his box at FC Bayern twice in a row. The U21 national goalkeeper has been significantly improved and safer in recent weeks after its bad Union-Patzer. Now the Munich is apparently about to make an important decision on the youngster.
According to the “Bild”, the German record champion has still not decided how the young goalkeeper should spend his summer. With the club World Cup in the USA (June 14th to July 13th) and the U21 European Championship in Slovakia (11th to June 28th) there are two prestigious tournaments.
Due to a special regulation, the clubs are not obliged this year to park their players for tournaments, which bite the financially extremely lucrative club World Cup in XXL format. FC Bayern is on the longer lever, can decide which of the two events of the ex-Kölner will take.
FC Bayern provides two conditions for Urbig approval
According to the “picture”, one wanted to release only under two conditions, which would act as a replacement for regular keeper Manuel Neuer in the USA. Accordingly, the DFB can only fall back on the 21-year-old if the Munichers can fly over the large pond with enough fit goalkeepers.
It probably means that in addition to new ones, Daniel Peretz and Sven Ulreich, who has not been available for some time for private reasons, should be a squad option. In addition, FC Bayern Urbig only wants to let the U21 European Championship if he goes into the tournament under head coach Antoinio di Salvo.
This role actually belongs to Noah Atubolu. However, the SC Freiburg goalkeeper has failed because of a shoulder injury since the end of March. According to the tabloid, the DFB would have, regardless of whether as number one or two, but definitely. Now the ball is on Säbener Straße. A decision should soon be made.
