🧑‍🎓 Dishing out lessons soon? Karl got extra coaching when Nagelsmann called | OneFootball

Bayern youngster Lennart Karl experienced the provisional highlight of his so far rapidly rising career this Thursday!

The 18-year-old was nominated by Julian Nagelsmann for the DFB international matches against Switzerland and Ghana.

But he wasn't able to take the first call from the national coach. “He was at tutoring, so he didn’t pick up right away,” Nagelsmann reported at the DFB press conference.

With humor, he added: “But that actually makes me happy. Otherwise, I would have scolded him if he had answered right away. The importance of what the teacher says is greater than what the national coach says.”

So, from being a tutoring recipient, Karl now wants to become a teacher himself. The teenager is surely eager to give Switzerland and Ghana a lesson in the coming days as well.
