Flick admits.. German players are developing in the English Premier League

Germany coach Hansi Flick admitted that his players are improving when they play in the English Premier League, on the eve of the two countries' teams meeting in the European Nations League.

"The level (in the Premier League) is very high. They have six or seven clubs at a similar level. Our players are developing, (like) Kai Haverts who grew up under the influence of Thomas Tuchel," said Flick, who came from Bayern Munich in a press conference. .

Flick expressed his disappointment with the last draw of "National Manchaft" against Italy (1-1) in a reserve squad on Saturday in Bologna, declaring that he will make "some changes" to the starting 11.

Flick did not lose in ten matches at the helm of the national team after his appointment to succeed Joachim Loew, but warned against facing the English, "We must prove against England. They have great players and their style depends on physical strength. (Harry) Kane is a striker of international quality, with tremendous quality."

On the historical dispute between the two teams, German midfielder Ilkay Gundogan said that this issue no longer exists much. "There is respect, and in the end it is about sports. Several German players have succeeded in England, and things have become friendly, even if we joke sometimes."

And to Gundogan, midfielder Manchester City champion of England, three German players this season in England are Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Antonio Rudiger with Chelsea, knowing that the latter moved to Real Madrid.
