The Germany international wants to be fully fit in order to be in the national team squad to participate in the 2014 World Cup in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858, and will stop his somersault festivity to avoid any injury
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Miroslav-Klose-c26049 has discarded his legendary somersault celebration to make sure he does not get injured at this stage of his playing career. The veteran attacker wants to be in top physical shape for the next two years
to be able to have a chance of taking part in his 4th World Cup.
The experienced footballer is still an important member of Die Mannschaft side and netted his 65th goal for the national team in their 6-1 hammering of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Republic-of-Ireland-c2987 in Dublin. The premier tournament is just 18
months away and the star striker is looking forward to be a part of the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 squad for the event in Brazil.
The Italian Serie A player wants to be in good shape to have more chances of making his dream come true, and will scrap his somersault celebration. Klose maintained that although he can still do it, but does not want to sustain
any injury while doing the jubilation.
"The somersault... I think I can still do it but I honestly do not want to risk it because I want to still be around in 2014," he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The frontman is just three goals shy of Gerd Muller’s 68 for Die Nationalelf. He can become the all-time top goal-scorer if he breaks Muller’s goal tally. However, he played down any comparisons with the former national hero.
"I would never compare myself to Gerd Muller," the 125-times capped Klose insisted.
"You should not compare him with any other striker around. What he achieved is incomparable. I have told him that myself a few times. It is a joke to be compared to him!" the former Kaiserslautern, Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich
forward finally concluded.
Klose said that Muller was a world class player and he cannot be compared with any other forward, as he was one of the best players of all time.
