Freiburg Goalkeeper Noah Atubolu Not Considering Playing For Nigeria
Mar 10, 2025

Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu has clarified his international future, expressing a strong desire to receive a call-up from the German national team rather than Nigeria.

Noah Atubolu, 22, has been outstanding in the Bundesliga this season, recently setting a new club record for consecutive games without conceding a goal during Freiburg’s 0-0 draw against RB Leipzig.
With 576 minutes without conceding, Atubolu now holds the fifth-longest clean sheet streak in Bundesliga history, achieving ten clean sheets in just 25 matches this season. He surpassed Richard Golz’s previous record of 510 minutes, set in the 2000/2001 season.
The last time Atubolu conceded a goal was against Bayern Munich on January 25, and he is steadily approaching Timo Hildebrand’s record of 885 minutes without conceding in the German top flight.
Following his commendable performance against Leipzig—where he made three crucial saves to help maintain his team’s Champions League aspirations—Atubolu is optimistic that he will catch the attention of German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann.
“Of course, I really want to get the chance to play for the senior national team,” Atubolu shared via Football5Star. “Having represented Germany at various youth levels, I would be lying if I said I didn’t aspire to contribute to the senior team.”
