Jürgen Klopp’s first squad was a bit of a mixed bag. While it was inventive to call up a 44-man squad, the results simply were not on the expectation level of the German national team. But the scoreline didn’t reflect everything. One of many positive takeaways from the first window was the opportunity to get an eye on a wide range of German talent, including Scottish Premiership side Celtic’s Mika Baur.
Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg has reported that Jürgen Klopp will nominate Baur should any further
absences arise during the international break. Baur is said to have made a very strong impression on his debut in October, and Klopp has him listed as one of the top midfield candidates.
While many would prefer to see the likes of Paris Brunner, David Raum, Yann Bisseck, Angelo Stiller, or Karim Adeyemi receive the next call-up, it is clear that Klopp has put a lot of trust in the young midfielder. In times like these, you need to trust the manager.
