National coach Hansi Flick announced the squad for the World Cup in Qatar on Thursday in Frankfurt. The 26-player squad is led by captain Manuel Neuer. The 2014 world champions are taking part in their fourth World Cup finals in Qatar. Youssoufa Moukoko from Borussia Dortmund and Niclas Füllkrug from Werder Bremen are new to the national squad. In addition, world champion Mario Götze returns from Eintracht Frankfurt to the DFB team. “We’re looking forward to them both because after the two failures we had here, they give us something special with Timo Werner and Lukas Nmecha. Mario Götze has been with us for a long time, I think it was 2017 there for the last time.” “We went through a lot of things, also went through if/then strategies. We also mentally went through several things that could happen in the game and then of course we just thought, ‘Okay, who can help the team? Who might be for one or the other situation for us the match winner?'” The DFB team will leave Frankfurt for Oman next Monday for preparation.
