Kobel finally inherits the No. 1 shirt full-time after years of Yann Sommer’s shadow — Sommer’s international retirement post-Euro 2024 cleared the path, and Kobel has been Switzerland’s keeper through the entire qualifying cycle. His Champions League pedigree is a clear upgrade in profile if not in actual reliability, and Yakin trusts him completely.
