Roman Weidenfeller – cheerful question mark – Süddeutsche.de

The goalkeeper enjoying his first (and probably last) DFB-competitive match at 7: 0 against Gibraltar. Of farewells from the DFB-team and Borussia Dortmund he wants to know anything yet.



has

Hilariously later left Roman Weidenfeller the Estádio Algarve in Faro , No trace of melancholy farewell feelings or so it seemed, anyway. The goalkeeper awakened after 7: 0 (1: 0) in the European Championship qualifier against Gibraltar not the impression that his fifth country and first competitive at the same time have been the last appearance for the national team. “Very good to zero, things could not have worked for me,” said Weidenfeller solved. He seemed almost in a mood to be comparable with that after winning the German championship with Borussia Dortmund in 2011, when he spoke to a reporter of the TV channel Dubai exuberant legendary Denglish set into the microphone: “I think we have a terrific season played. “

Now Weidenfeller was quite pleased that the football dwarf terrific naughty played mainly in the first half, and surprisingly often employed him had. “For a goalkeeper, it is always pleasant, when tested, the one time or another,” he said. That him doing a few good parades were successful, increased his good humor even. Especially now pending holiday. “Running shoes and shorts” but he will wrap up with the trip to the sea, as Weidenfeller told, “we must indeed prepare the preparation.” Where he will attend the actual preparation, is different from its destination still quite questionable, including running sessions. As well as his future in the national team. The tendency: There are in both cases, changes to

“The future belongs to the young goalkeepers”

It may very well be that Weidenfeller late career in the national team 19 months after his. debut with 33 years has already come to an end on Saturday night. Joachim Loew had indeed sent him already with a few words of praise in the game, while consistently voted the past tense. “The novel was for us the last year and a half an incredibly important player. The novel was incredibly important at the World Cup, had incredibly good influence on the young players. It was really very, very good, that the novel was the last months with us “the coach had said, among many other eulogies (” consummate professional “,” insanely positive aura “), and a small, so do not intend meanness (” He’s very, very well trained “). Loew has already part but also make quite clear hints that he rather not in France plans on the way forward towards Euro 2016 with the novel. On August 6 Weidenfeller will celebrate his 35th birthday

“The future belongs to the young players, of course, the young gatekeepers “, Löw has decided, while the three U21 goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, Bernd Leno and Timo Horn also mentioned by name as Kevin Trapp, who had been at home this time as official number three in Frankfurt for the event of a breach on demand. Even Ron-Robert Zieler, against Gibraltar as number two in the squad, now can no longer be sure that he will continue to rely. Löw course remains open all options. Asked about Weidenfeller future he said on Saturday night: “We have always said in the gatekeepers. We are waiting up to a tournament course, we have young goalkeeper who we want to introduce, but ultimately counts the power We are the decide in the next season.. . ” A small chance of continuing the career as a national team is so still. However, it is probably a very small.



In Dortmund to him replace the Swiss Bürki

In Weidenfeller it anyway so that he currently does not even know where he will play at all is. Although his contract expires at Borussia Dortmund for another year, but recently had him there not only Mitchell Langerack outranked. In addition, the BVB has apparently agreed with the Swiss national team goalkeeper Roman Bürki from SC Freiburg on a change. Officially confirmed these media reports are not true. But at least half the officially took over a previous teammate Weidenfeller. Kevin Grosskreutz posted on Saturday at Instagram a picture, on which he stands between Sebastian Kehl and Roman Weidenfeller. For this purpose, he wrote: “So many years Borussia Dortmund in the picture This is so rare in the professional sector never forget It was such a great time and we will always be Borussia….” Weidenfeller would not confirm his departure. “The club has to inform my decision,” he said thus, “As of today I appear again on June 29″, the first training session. And a future in the national team he has apparently not yet been written off. “I am pleased with every day that I can be with the team,” he said and praised the “absolute trust” the coaching staff and their colleagues in the DFB-Eleven.

But Weidenfeller suspects course that it is very possible that two farewells are officially for him this summer. So that in addition to Kehl, who had finished his playing career at the end of the season, leave also Grosskreutz and Weidenfeller BVB. And also that of Saturday for Weidenfeller marked the national team the day of his departure. One could after him his title winning with Borussia and the world title in early summer almost put into his mouth: “had I think I have a terrific time.”
