Undav sings praises of Stuttgart comrades Karazor and Bredlow | OneFootball

With rumours circulating around Deniz Undav being named VfB Stuttgart captain, the forward spoke highly of current skipper Atakan Karazor.

“Even if I should become captain, Ata will remain my captain. He is a good player and has always given everything for VfB.

“He communicates well, creates space, and takes a lot upon himself,” Undav told Sky Germany at Stuttgart's pre-season camp.

As for Fabian Bredlow, who is in line to deputize for the injured Dennis Seimen, Undav always had faith in the goalkeeper's abilities.

“I've been telling him [Bredlow] for two seasons that we have the best backup goalkeeper in the entire Bundesliga. 

“Now he can prove himself and show that we don't need a new goalkeeper. He's a world-class guy and an awesome keeper,” he added.

The Baden-Württemberg outfit are in deep preparations for their season opener against DFB-Pokal opponents Hansa Rostock.
