German Bundesliga coach Julian Nagelsmann is confident in the professionalism of midfielder Florian Wirtz. Who can distinguish between the tasks assigned to him and the external connections. So he is ready to compete in the UEFA Nations League Finals semi-final against Portugal (June 4).
The 22-year-old Bayer Leverkusen player is a target for Premier League champions Liverpool, with talks between the two clubs reaching a deadlock สมัคร UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีสำหรับสมาชิกใหม่
That has led to a flurry of media reports about Wirtz both true and false. That may have distracted him from his focus. However, Nagelsmann is confident that the high-powered playmaker’s maturity will help him cope.
“Weirtz will play for sure. I don’t feel he’s worried about the injury.” he said at the pre-match press conference at the Allianz Arena.
“He has a fighting spirit that wants to play and succeed with us.”
“Personally, I don’t see these situations as bothering him.”
“It’s normal for players, coaches or anyone to have one or two ideas when a transfer is coming up. It’s part of that.”
Further reports from ‘Sky Sport Deutschland’ say that Wirtz will start as a forward alongside Leroy Sane and Niklas Füllkrug.
Wirtz scored three and provided three assists in six UEFA Nations League A games between July and November, starting in all but one. And with the absence of Jamal Musiala through injury. Wirtz will be tasked with being the creative outlet for the national team.
