The fourth episode of Sportal's KabarEL podcast brings an exclusive interview with Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet and German national team guard David Kramer. Kramer discusses life at Zvezda, his Serbian heritage, his difficult spell at Real Madrid, and how he nearly walked away from the German national team.

Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet are coming off a flawless EuroLeague double-round week after dominant victories over Maccabi Tel Aviv and Bayern Munich at Belgrade Arena. However, a grueling stretch now awaits the Belgrade club, as seven of their next eight games will be played on the road.

Kramer also spoke about his newest teammate, Christian Koloko. The big man recently joined Crvena Zvezda and has already electrified the Mali Kalemegdan faithful with his highlight-reel blocks and dunks.

Speaking exclusively to Sportal, Kramer also revealed that he came remarkably close to retiring from the German national team, before newly appointed head coach Álex Mumbrú persuaded him to reconsider.

Naturally, the discussion with Kramer also turned to 'Movember', the global campaign dedicated to raising awareness for men's health throughout November. Does he have plans to grow his signature mustache even more?

To hear more from David Kramer, catch the full interview in the latest episode of KabarEL.
