Luca Netz is only a substitute at Borussia Mönchengladbach. Now the left-back has spoken about the situation and his future in Gladbach.
Luca Netz is considered one of the greatest German talents in the left-back position. This season, however, the playing time in Gladbach has been significantly reduced. Netz is only Bensebaini’s back-up under Daniel Farke. Now the 19-year-old has spoken about the current situation and his future.
It’s a difficult situation for Luca Netz. Last season, the left-back was one of Gladbach’s shooting stars. Since Daniel Farke took over as coach, the 19-year-old has had to take a back seat. In this Bundesliga season, Netz only started one game. That was against Bayern Munich in August.
In an interview with the picture Luca Netz spoke about the current situation and sporting future on the Lower Rhine. “It’s no secret that I would have liked to have had more playing time in the first half of the season, so of course things could have gone better for me personally,” admitted the 19-year-old openly. Nevertheless, he gave every training session gas and always worked on himself.
Bensebaini in top form
The reasons for the role as a substitute are easy to name for the young star: “Ramy Bensebaini is in top form – and he’s playing in my position on the left.” This is a difficult situation for Daniel Farke. Basically, the coach is satisfied with Netz’s performance, but also signaled that Bensebaini is preferred at the moment.
The planning game of a left Gladbach side with Bensebaini and Netz was also discussed. This idea is system dependent. With a back three, that could be a good option. Netz was not averse to the idea: “We have already shown that it can work.”
Rent as the only option
In the past week there has been much speculation in the media about a loan in the winter transfer window. Netz emphasized that he is very happy and feels comfortable at Borussia. For him, it’s ultimately about getting the game time. “I’ll talk to the club about that. You’ll discuss different options and see which is the best,” Netz said vaguely about his future.
The left-back also made it clear that a loan – in addition to staying – is the only option. “A sale is not an issue at all,” emphasized Netz. He still sees his sporting future in Gladbach. Regardless of whether he is drawn to another club for half a year.
