Niclas Füllkrug is now established in the DFB team, Deniz Undav is new. Both strikers bring relaxedness to the team. Undav’s path to the national team was a special one.
When nominating his radically changed squad, Julian Nagelsmann explained in great detail what he was thinking. The national coach of the German national football team spoke for half time about the reasons for selecting his players for the international matches this Saturday (9 p.m. in the FAZ live ticker for international matches and on ZDF) in Lyon against France and on Tuesday (8.45 p.m. in the FAZ live ticker). for international matches and on RTL) in Frankfurt against the Netherlands.
