Alexander Nübel was once earmarked as Manuel Neuer's long-term successor when Bayern Munich signed him from Schalke, but found first-team football impossible to access behind the veteran and spent time on loan at Monaco. His move to Stuttgart in 2023 proved transformative — he became one of the Bundesliga's best goalkeepers, commanding his area with authority and producing consistently high-level performances that finally made his Germany selection undeniable. At 29, he is in the prime window for a goalkeeper and enters this World Cup as a genuine contender for the starting spot rather than a theoretical future option.
