Germany goes to this World Cup as one of the favorites to win the Goddess, but the arsenal that Hansi Flick has at her disposal is not as scary as those handled by Joachim Löw at the previous World Cups. Maybe without Muller!
For the success of the Germans, it is crucial that the Bayern player Thomas Müller be ready for the tournament in Qatar, so today the alarm went off in the Germany camp because the 33-year-old striker missed the last training session of the German national team.
The Germans are at the base in Muscat, where they will play a friendly match against the hosts Oman on Wednesday at 18:00, without Miller in the team.
Miller has had a lot of problems with back and receiver injuries lately.
Before that, he was infected with the coronavirus three times, and the last match in which he played all 90 minutes was on September 30, when the Bavarians beat Bayer Leverkusen 4:0.
Coach Hansi Flick is not worried though and expects Miller to start training already on Saturday.
- Of course, Thomas had a long break, but he is certainly very well prepared and trained properly in Munich. We want to continue like that here. We have very good quality in those positions, we need that to have a successful tournament. So it’s all about what the players will deliver. Thomas Müller and Antonio Rudiger will return to training on Saturday – confirmed Flick.
Mario Götze and Christian and Matthias Guenther rested on Tuesday, but it is understood that everything is fine with them.
