Who will be in goal for Germany with ter Stegen injured?

With Marc-André ter Stegen out with a long-term injury, who will be in goal for Germany when they face Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Netherlands later this month?

 

It seems TSG Hoffenheim's Oliver Baumann and VfB Stuttgart's Alexander Nübel (on loan from Bayern Munich) can both look forward to making their Germany debuts in October.

Germany's first choice-goalkeeper, Marc-André ter Stegen, is unlikely to play again this season after suffering a ruptured patellar tendon.

And according to Bild, Baumann and Nübel are expected to play a game each in his absence this month when Germany take on Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Netherlands.

The report claims that DFB goalkeeping coach Andreas Kronenberg prefers Baumann.

However, the fact that Nübel is six years younger than Baumann speaks in his favor, as he could be ter Stegen's long-term successor.

RB Salzburg's Janis Blaswich, who is on loan at RB Leipzig, is the favorite for the role as Germany's third-choice goalkeeper.
