In the most recent conversation with Manuel Neuer, the focus was on the most recent interview. Julian Nagelsmann corrected a comment to ‘Sky’ on Saturday that this was not the case: “It was about the interview – that was ironic. Of course, the conversation was about the interview. We exchanged our opinions and what we discussed remains internal.”
Everything else would have been surprising, after all, Neuer had caused the anger of the entire club management with his statements. “Football is a team sport and everyone is in the same boat”says Nagelsmann, who expects his captain to “that he supports the team”.
In the coming months, this can only happen from the outside, because Neuer will be out for several more months due to his fibula fracture. Nagelsmann clarifies: “The Causa Manuel Neuer is not closed, but this topic is closed.” Whether this is more of a wish than a statement remains to be seen in the coming weeks.
