Alexander Nübel has been loaned to AS Monaco by FC Bayern this season.

The goalkeeper initiates the false start at the new club with a mistake.

Monaco - FC Bayern * awarded Alexander Nübel * before the season to give him more match practice.

The ex-U21 national goalkeeper only played four games behind Manuel Neuer in his first season.

With AS Monaco *, the Munich apparently found a perfect buyer.

Under ex-Bayern coach Niko Kovac, the Monegas are among the top teams in France and can qualify as third in the table via the playoffs for the Champions League.

Nübel was signed as number one, the previous regular goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte was therefore quickly awarded to Atletico Madrid - making way for Nübel.

The Bayern plan seemed to work completely, Nübel can develop into the new successor far away from home without stress.

But after a few weeks, the truth on the pitch looks very different.

Monaco has made a veritable false start.

The Kovac-Elf are still without a win after three games in Ligue 1 * and participation in the premier class is in serious danger - right in the middle of it all is Nübel, who is not entirely uninvolved in the misery.

Bayern loan Nübel fails again - Monaco receives the next bankruptcy

The Monegasque, who played for the championship in France until shortly before the end of the season, threatens to gamble away all of the season's goals early in the season. On Saturday, the club from the principality conceded the third competitive game defeat in a row without scoring a goal of their own. The 2-0 defeat against Lens was the second defeat in the league - with only one point from three games, Monaco is penultimate.

Nübel did not cut a good figure in the defeat at the weekend.

First, the 24-year-old from East Westphalia was lucky that the ball only just missed the goal after his mistake.

When Ignatius Ganago scored the first goal shortly after the break, he was not primarily responsible, but unfortunately let the leather slip through his arms.

Behind the startled goalkeeper, the ball rolled over the line.

It wasn't his first mistake in the Monaco dress. *

The ex-Schalke was not to blame for the second goal in stoppage time.

European Championship participant Kevin Volland came on in the 63rd minute.

The ex-Cologne Ismail Jakobs, who last caused the decisive penalty in the 0: 1 in Lorient, sat the entire season on the bench.

FC Bayern: Goalkeeper loan Nübel fears with Monaco about the Champions League

Monaco now urgently needs an increase in performance - and quickly.

Because on Wednesday the decisive game in the Champions League playoffs awaits with the trip to Ukraine to Shakhtar Donetsk.

The first leg a week ago was lost 1-0 at home.

Nübel was absent with stomach problems and was represented by competitor Radoslaw Majecki.

In the second leg, Nübel is likely to be in goal again and could make his mistakes forgotten with a strong performance and entry into the premier class.

FC Bayern brought in returnees Sven Ulreich as Nübel's successor in the summer, but there was also interest in an ex-lion. *
