Leon Goretzka's Comeback Highlights Bayern and Germany Success

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge criticizes Thomas Tuchel's handling of Goretzka as the midfielder shines under Vincent Kompany and for the German national team.

Leon Goretzka scored the winning goal for Germany in the Nations League quarterfinal against Italy, marking a triumphant return to the national team after 16 months.
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge publicly criticized former Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel for wanting Goretzka out of the club during his tenure.
Tuchel's preference for a defensive midfielder, such as João Palhinha, sidelined Goretzka, who was seen as a transfer candidate in 2023.
Under Vincent Kompany, Goretzka regained his form and solidified his role at Bayern Munich with consistent performances.
Rummenigge praised Goretzka's professionalism and resilience in overcoming challenges and re-establishing himself as a key player for both club and country.
