Jurgen Klinsmann he was one of the most important center-forward in Europe at the turn of the 90s and our Serie A also learned to know him with the Inter shirt of Trapattoni’s records. Calciomercato.com had the opportunity to interview him at the award ceremony for Robert Lewandowski as Best Fifa The Best player of this 2022. The chat was an opportunity for take stock of the great forwards of the present, including Bundesliga, national teams and even Serie A.
Thanks to the Bundesliga for the opportunity to carry out this interview.
BEST 9 – “Lewandowski is the best today. You know he has compared himself with Gerd Muller and I think he is very close to that. He’s scoring record after record. It is repeating itself. Robert is continuing to have the desire and hunger to win, grow and improve. Poland does not have the strength to be in the top 4 in the world, but he is still doing crazy things. With him I’m sure Bayern will probably win the title again this year ”.
THE RENEWAL WITH BAYERN – “I hope he can stay at Bayern and renew with the club. I wouldn’t want him to go away because he can still do very well for at least another 3 years at very high levels. There are many players like Buffon, maybe Ronaldo who, with the sporting life they do, have managed to go forward a lot in their career. Beyond the money, I hope he can stay and become an ambassador for the club like Khan and other ex-players who then entered Bayern’s management plans “
HAALAND – “Haaland has the skills to get to the level of Lewandowski, I believe he is the only one who is emerging as a forward in the world. He may be the next Lewandowski. He has the same style, he knows how to score with the right, left, head, he scores penalties. But I think who can beat Robert’s 41 goals of the season is only Robert at the moment. Him and Lewandowski together? It is a logical provocation to take away the greatest threat from Borussia Dortmund. However, I believe that as long as Lewandowski is around, there will be no chance to see Haaland at Bayern. They are too similar and would occupy the same spaces at the same time ”.
GERMANY WITHOUT 9 – “It’s hard to say why there isn’t such a strong striker for the German national team as he is, even though everyone is looking for him. The will is to look for them at a youth level, put them in a path and make them grow. Everyone is struggling in Germany to find a bomber. In the last 15 years there have been many attacking midfielders, many wings, but few 9. Werner, Wirtz, are excellent players, but they are not born goalscorers. After Klose, there was no one else ”.
PEPI IN BUNDESLIGA – “Ricardo Pepi, I wish him that he can do well. He is a great talent, but the leap from the US to the Bundesliga is a big one and I think he was very brave. He will not go to a team that will give him many chances to find easy goals, but that is fighting not to be relegated. I really hope they give him time to grow and that he can do it ”.
BEAT MESSI AND RONALDO – “Messi and Ronaldo are still above Lewandowski as world icons. How can it reach them? Surely the more titles you win, the more your reputation grows. Your national team also earns you points, and Messi and Cristiano are considered among the top in the world also for the successes or the danger that their national teams represent. If Messi wins the World Cup in Qatar he would even be at the level of Maradona. I don’t think Lewandowski has this possibility ”.
PIATEK – “I hope Piatek can return to top levels. I had the honor of working with him and I think he is a great striker. Unfortunately when he arrived at Hertha the club had many problems, they were fighting not to be relegated and were playing very defensive football. As a central striker he suffered a lot because he didn’t have many opportunities to score. I had followed him in Serie A and with the Polish national team. If you give him two opportunities, he scores one, he has a lot of potential and I hope he has the right chances in Italy again, because a striker lives on numbers (goals ed.) And if they don’t arrive you start doubting yourself. This is exactly what happened to Hertha and I think the same before ”.
DYBALA – Looking at these situations from the outside is always fun. I can say that every complication that happens from Juventus makes me smile because I am an Inter fan and I would always like to see them in trouble (laughs ed.). Seriously, what happens to Dybala in any case is super interesting because he is an absolute top and the fact that we keep talking about him only complicates Juventus’ plans and will probably help Inter win another. title. Then where will it go? I am convinced that someone like him does well in every team, because he is a top “.
SCHICK – “We are really very happy to have him in the Bundesliga, I have no doubt and even before this season. He is doing very very well and even though he may not be considered much by the media yet, he has the recognition of being a top from his club and his teammates. I hope he can continue at these levels regardless of which club will buy him at the end of the season. I think he can play in a top 4 in Europe “.
NKUNKU – “We are wondering why he has not yet been called up for the French national team. It is a lot of fun to watch. We need to understand how “incisive” it can be over time. He will certainly be the forward to follow in the coming months ”.
NEW KLINSMANN – “Is there anyone in the Bundesliga who remembers my style of play? I don’t think so because the game has evolved a lot, the pace is higher, the speed has grown. Today there are so many structures, ideas, tools to make children grow at a youth level that were not there in my time. There are many more opportunities to become a great player, it always depends on the mind, the context and the desire to get involved. “
