Flick on Hummels: “Not this level at the moment”

Mats Hummels (32) has not yet been nominated for the national team by Hansi Flick. It could stay that way.

In the past few months, Hansi Flick had repeatedly talked about Mats Hummels when listing his DFB squad. In other words, about why the BVB defender had not been nominated. Primarily, according to Flick, it was about Hummels’ knee, which was damaged after the European Championship and could use every break.

What the national coach now said in the interview with “RTL/ntv” sounded a bit more critical. At the moment, Flick said, Hummels “does not have this level, this quality in his game. I also know, when I see him and talk to him, that he has a few problems.

In the top match against FC Bayern (2:3), of all games, Hummels had a bad day at work, but then showed a “very good reaction” against Besiktas, according to BVB coach Marco Rose.

Flick also knows that “he has a quality”. That’s why he continues to keep “the door open” for Hummels. But that also applies to all the others, “who have enormous quality, who will take us forward”.
