Jürgen Klinsmann

So yesterday when I came up to Manchester, I felt like, you know what, I can see clearly again.

I think now I know next steps will be this, this, this.

It will be a long road of recovery, but he will recover 100%.

And he will set his new goals then.

Obviously, he wants to play a World Cup.

He's 29 years old and he had a chance now with Maurizio, but it didn't happen.

But I told him, listen, you heal 100%.

The screws will come out after six to nine months and it will heal.

And then it's more psychological, obviously, but he's a strong boy.

He says, I'm going to do that.

I will come back.

Thanks for asking.

Yeah, it is.

It kind of reminds a lot of people a bit of Bert's Roadman, you know, the story that he had with the broken neck.

But the most important part was game over, lay him down on the ground and then get him straight to the hospital.

Then they did x-rays and MRTs and all these things that they do nowadays.

And then with every half an hour, the messages got worse and worse.

And I knew I got to get on the next flight.

uh to europe which i did and then uh the moment we got him then into that special clinic in heidelberg in germany that's when you kind of relax yeah i relaxed a little bit and said you know what they know what they're doing that's what they're doing they get the the motorcyclist they get the e-bike children that they horrible accidents nowadays you know and they are specialized in in neck situation and neck surgeries and spine issues and

It was good to hear.
