Undav expects 'boost' from new Germany coach Klopp

Striker Deniz Undav believes Jürgen Klopp's arrival as the new head coach will invigorate the German national football team. Undav, speaking from VfB Stuttgart's training camp, suggested that Klopp's appointment signals a fresh start for every player.

Every player must prove themselves anew, there is new energy.

"Every player must prove themselves anew, there is new energy," Undav said. He likened the change to a coaching switch at a club, implying that the team's lineup and strategy might differ significantly from the previous coach, Julian Nagelsmann. Undav's focus is on delivering strong performances to secure his spot in the national team.

It can be that it will be a completely different lineup than with the Bundestrainer before.

The German team faces its first matches under Klopp in the Nations League starting in late September, with an away game against the Netherlands on September 24. Nagelsmann resigned shortly after Germany's disappointing exit from the World Cup in a penalty shootout against Paraguay. Undav admitted it took him about a week to process the World Cup disappointment, reflecting on the "why, how, and what" before shifting his focus to his vacation.

So just perform, and then hopefully it will be appreciated that I will be invited.
