Overview
- Nübel kept a clean sheet in Beşiktaş’s 1–0 Süper Lig opener against Eyüpspor on Sunday, giving him five shutouts in his first five games for the club.
- Those five matches include four Europa League qualifying games in which Beşiktaş beat Midtjylland twice and Hradec Králové twice by 1–0 margins.
- The goalkeeper joined Beşiktaş this summer on a contract through 2029 after leaving Bayern, with media reports citing a roughly €6 million fee plus about €5 million in potential bonuses.
- Nübel spent six years on Bayern’s books but made only four competitive appearances there and was loaned to Monaco and VfB Stuttgart before the permanent move to Istanbul.
- In the Eyüpspor match Nübel was fouled in the box by Ahmed Abdullahi without a booking and a later yellow-red for David Costa left Beşiktaş with a numerical edge, and while the run is a positive early sign it remains a small sample worth watching as the season continues.
