FC Bayern: Coach Nagelsmann gives Goretzka a guarantee against the youth club

There will probably be no surprise in goal, Manuel Neuer * will probably be standing between the posts as usual.

Dayot Upamecano could be ordered to take a break in defense, and Lucas Hernandez could move into central defense for him.

Benjamin Pavard and Alphonso Davies will probably start on the wings, but Nagelsmann could also order one of the two full-backs to take a short break.

"We'll rotate a bit, but we're not going to distribute the rhythm extremely, but rather leave the players who are good at it on the pitch," announced Nagelsmann.

Thus, surprises in the starting line-up cannot be ruled out.

In the headquarters, Leon Goretzka, who extended to the record champions on Thursday until 2026, will certainly play.

“I don't intend to give him a break.

He certainly wants to perform well against his youth club and take the momentum of the contract extension with him, "said Nagelsmann.

Born in Bochum *, he played for VfL from 2001 to 2013.

A deployment of newcomer Marcel Sabitzer *, however, is still uncertain.

“We haven't made a decision yet with Sabi,” said the coach.

With Corentin Tolisso, who has calf problems, and the recently operated Kingsley Coman, who was diagnosed with a cardiac arrhythmia, two players are sure to be out of the game against the champions of the past second division season.

With the failure of Coman, Nagelsmann has less choice on the offensive wings.

Serge Gnabry, who initially sat on the bench in Barcelona, ​​will probably start against Bochum.

This leaves Leroy Sané and Jamal Musiala as alternatives.
