News about Bernd Leno

Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann has taken aim at Jens Lehmann for his comments on the country's goalkeeper selection. The four-time World Cup winners face Bosnia and Herzegovina on Friday night in the Nations League but will do so without No 1 goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, after the Barcelona star sustained a serious knee injury last month. Fulham star Bernd Leno was called up by Nagelsmann for the upcoming internationals but turned down the opportunity after he was informed that he would not get any minutes. Former Germany goalkeeper Lehmann revealed he was 'surprised' that Leno was not considered to start by Nagelsmann.

Bruno Fernandes has issued a hilarious apology to Fantasy Football managers after the Manchester United midfielder missed two clear-cut chances in his side's 1-0 win over Fulham. The Portuguese star should have scored twice in the space of six minutes in the first half as the Red Devils looked to assert their dominance at Old Trafford. Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno gave the ball away to Casemiro in the 29th minute and redeemed himself by saving from United captain Fernandes with his body when he should have done better. Then, soon after, Casemiro played a stunning first time to pass to a free Fernandes again and this time Leno saved with his left leg. All this meant that the tricky attacking midfielder, who has bagged 79 goals and 67 assists in four years at the club, was left ruing his missed chances and Fantasy managers left ruing a disappointing return of just three points.

Emile Smith Rowe saw his Fulham medical gatecrashed by two of his old Arsenal team-mates.  The Cottagers completed the signing of Smith Rowe from Arsenal for £27million on Friday. The Gunners academy graduate has penned a five-year deal that will keep him at Craven Cottage until the summer of 2029. The deal includes a further 12-month option.

Noel Gallagher opted not to get involved with celebrations after Man City moved one step closer to Premier League glory with a 4-0 win at Fulham. Josko Gvardiol fired his side in front after just 13 minutes at Craven Cottage, with the summer signing finishing off an excellently worked team move by slotting his strike beyond Bernd Leno. City had several chances to add to their advantage in the first-half but were unable to double their lead until Phil Foden added a second after the interval.

Gravenberch had received the ball from Harvey Elliott on the edge of the box and after shifting it to his right boot struck a powerful effort beyond Bernd Leno. Eagle-eyed punters also kept a close watch on Reds captain Van Dijk during the build-up, however, with the centre back seemingly celebrating too early. But to the surprise of many around the stadium, Gravenberch's fine effort hurtled into the net, handing Liverpool the lead in their must-win game in the capital. Footage showed Van Dijk raising his arms aloft as Gravenberch was teed up by Elliott, showcasing his confidence his Holland team-mate would fire home.

Bernd Leno, Fulham's goalkeeper, oddly left a Premier League player out of his top ten best shot-stoppers. Since being a £8 million player with Arsenal in the summer of 2022, Leno has thrived with the Cottagers. In a 'blind rankings challenge' for Sky Sports, the 32-year-old was asked to rank a number of current and former goalkeepers.

NOTTINGHAM FOREST 3-1 FULHAM - JOE BERNSTEIN AT THE CITY GROUND: Nottingham Forest earned their biggest victory of the season on Tuesday, with Morgan Gibbs-White as the catalyst, noting the formula to climb from the bottom three. In a tumultuous first half for Forest that had been defeated 5-0 by Fulham earlier this season, Gibbs-White assisted and scored. Forest made a joke of their recent run of one victory in 13 games in all competitions, even though their opponents had scored ten goals in four games, starting the evening out of the relegation zone solely on goal difference.

The Premier League returns to action this weekend for the season's run-in. There are ten games remaining, with some of them on the line.

JOE BERNSTEIN FROM CRAVEN COTTAGE: Fulham took a big stride toward the top half of the Premier League table after beating Tottenham 3-0 on Saturday in a sensational Champions League match. Spurs had won their last seven league games at Craven Cottage, but Ange Postecoglou must be worried that just a week after thrashing European rivals Aston Villa 4-0, his players were so sluggish.

Bruno Fernandes has been described as a "cheat" and "pathetic" after a video of the Manchester United captain writhing about in agony to try and win a free kick went viral. During United's loss to Fulham on Saturday, the shameful example of the Portuguese actor's play-acting occurred. Fernandes, who parried shot resulted in the defender's goal, recovered the ball and began to beat Fulham's defense, not long after Harry Maguire equalized. Fernandes took a left-footed shot from 30 yards that Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno blocked out with scant options ahead of him. Despite apparent lack of contact from Fulham midfielder Sasa Lukic, who had closed him down, Fernandes threw himself to the ground in mock pain.

NATHAN SALT AT OLD TRAFFORD: When Harry Maguire fired in from Bernd Leno's mistake, he thought he had earned his point late, but Alex Iwobi was on hand to score a later-than-late winner, ensuring the points returned to London. The result brought an end to United's five-game winning streak, four in the Premier League, and left them eight points shy of advancing to the top-four. It was the worst possible start to the Sir Jim Ratcliffe period, and it told the British billionaire that there is a lot of work to be done at the club.

Neal Maupay has shared a blog post about the 'disturbing' insult he received on social media after Brighton's tumultuous victory over Arsenal in June 2020. In a game in which Bernd Leno, the left Gunners keeper, was on-loan at Brentford from Everton, was the winner for Brighton. Despite receiving messages of congratulations from his colleagues and relatives for his achievement, he was also targeted with shaming on social media.

The Uruguayan striker had a game-changing impact off the bench when the Reds came from behind to win the Carabao Cup semi-finals. Curtis Jones and Cody Gakpo scored both goals, bringing him to ten assists for the season in all leagues. However, he couldn't find the goal that he deserved, with Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno making an excellent save to keep Marco Silva's side in the tie going into the second round.

EXCLUSIVE: Louie Jacob, 14, (pictured left and right) has been on the books with the Cherries since his father Courtney and others announced him on social media just hours after the game was called on. Millions watched as German Leno, 31, kicked Jacob (inset) as Fulham lost 3-0. Bournemouth fans voiced their disapproval after the 74th minute incident booing and jeering Leno and chanting:' Whose the w***** in the green?'

Bernd Leno is expected to avoid further action from the Football Association for his altercation with a ball boy during Fulham's loss at Bournemouth. Leno, the goalkeeper, made contact with the kid rather than pressuring him to retrieve the ball in the second half. At that time, Leno had already been arrested, but referee Tim Robinson had no further discipline.

ARA KAJUMBA AT THE VITALITY STADIUM Bernd Leno did not exactly celebrate Boxing Day on Saturday, but after getting physical with one of the Bournemouth ball boys, he may have been in hot water. Leno took exception to the fact that the ball was returned to him after three days on a second-half flashpoint, bringing to an end a day to remember for the Fulham goalkeeper who had been defeated three times, denying Bournemouth one of their goals and almost another. He made himself the pantomime villain at Vitality Stadium, with his entire participation booed.

As his team was defeated 3-0 by Bournemouth on Tuesday, Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno appeared to shove a ball boy.

KIERAN GILL AT CRAVEN COTTAGE: Burnley dragged themselves one step closer to Premier League safety after defeating Fulham in their third top-flight victory of the season.

Burnley's Burnley, a Vincent Kompany side, is no longer championing the Premier League table.

Amadou Onana's shocking penalty miss against Fulham in Everton's Carabao Cup quarter-final loss at Goodison Park on Tuesday has gone viral, with a hilarious Arabic translation. The commentator covering Everton's penalty said just one word during the shootout, referring to Onana's name as 'Ohhh na' over and over again. As the Belgian national's fight went from hope to dismay, Onana's shot's pronunciation and emotions changed.

Everton agonisingly crashed out of the EFL Cup playoffs suffering loss to Fulham, with football fans having sluggish Amadou Onana for making "one of the worst calls ever." After Michael Keane's own goal, the visitors went 1-0 up, the Toffees had a good comeback at Goodison Park. Beto would score in the 82nd minute of the match, bringing the game to a halt. Everton took the advantage in the shootout, with Jordan Pickford saving Bobby De Cordova-Reid's spot-kick, giving Onana the opportunity to advance to the tournament's semi-finals. Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno gave the visitors a lifeline, but his tame attempt was saved.

After playing both right-back and in midfield, Jurgen Klopp has said Trent Alexander-Arnold would play in whatever position best suits Liverpool. In a thrilling 4-3 thriller on Sunday, the England international has been equally adept in both roles and scored a dramatic stoppage time winner. Alexander-Arnold's superb free kick kicked in from Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno's back for Liverpool's opening goal at Anfield.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is turning into a threatening presence for Liverpool after his dramatic victory over Fulham at the weekend. Fulham should have been the first team since late October 2022 to win at Anfield in the league, after Leeds, but instead the Kop was left toasting Alexander-Arnold and yelling about "the Scouser in the team," with the local lad grazing all the praise.

Fans have taken to social media to praise Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister for his heroic goal against Fulham, with some even calling it the season's goal. The Argentine picked the ball up in midfield before striding forward and unleashing an unstoppable blast from 30 yards out, which sailed past Bernd Leno.

Fans of Premier League have taken to social media to express their surprise as Stuart Attwell allowed Bernd Leno to play despite losing a knee to Luis Diaz's face. The pair collided, with Leno's right eye appearing to shut following the incident.
