| Jens Lehmann said on Saturday that he would take part in this summer's World Cup whether he is the first-choice German goalkeeper or not.
German coach Jurgen Klinsmann has decided to give the number one jersey to the 36-year-old Arsenal goalie instead of veteran Oliver Kahn.
But Lehmann said he would go to the World Cup even if he failed to be favored by Klinsmann.
"I would have needed time to think about it but I would have gone to the finals as the number two," Lehmann told German television channel Premiere.
"I would then have retired after the tournament." |
