Following a friendly match against Ghana on March 30, 2026, Nagelsmann acknowledged that his comments were 'stupid' and 'far too harsh' to say publicly. He expressed regret, stating, 'That wasnโt right and was also far too harsh to say publicly.' He confirmed that he apologized to Undav the very next day, and thankfully, the player accepted his apology, leading to a resolution between them. However, despite the reconciliation, it remains unclear whether Undav will be included in future lineups for the German national team, as Nagelsmann's decisions may not be influenced by his personal apology.
