He explains: “I honestly expected it. It was my first Bundesliga game since mid-December. The others are too good for you to nominate someone who doesn’t play.”
Hummels reveals: “That’s why I had already planned the weeks with my son. That didn’t come as a surprise to me.”

But he hasn’t given up on his European Championship dream yet. “I just do what I can do. And then we’ll see. It’s completely understandable that the guys who deliver top performances are there,” said Hummels.
National coach Julian Nagelsmann also did without Nico Schlotterbeck, Julian Brandt, Niklas Süle, Karim Adeyemi and Emre Can in his squad.
Can was voted National Player of the Year by the fans for 2023, but now he is missing. “The coach has to decide that. I had a good conversation with Julian. He said that the door was still open,” he said when asked.
