In modern football, a goalkeeper is expected not only to excel at shot-stopping but also to be proficient with their feet. Manuel Neuer was the trailblazer in this style, and it seems Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt is training their young keepers with the same approach, as confirmed by a recent post on their social media.
Details: On Eintracht's official account on the social network X, the club shared a video from their U-9 team's match. The video shows the goalkeeper taking the ball at his feet, dribbling it almost the entire length of the field, and scoring a goal.
Commenters jokingly suggested that this young player might be a fitting successor to Neuer, who is now 38 years old.
Reminder: Previously, it was reported that a deceased Eintracht coach's phone contained a large quantity of child pornography.
