After Alexander Schlager, who is now between the posts at Red-Bull Salzburg, the next LASK goalkeeper is now joining the national football team. Yesterday, ÖFB team boss Ralf Rangnick brought Tobias Lawal into his 24-man squad for the first time for the final European Championship qualifier on November 16th in Tallinn against Estonia and the test match on November 21st in the sold-out Happel Stadium against Germany. The 23-year-old has earned this call-up with impeccable performances for the Black and Whites. With Sascha Horvath, a second LASK player is on Rangnick’s call list.
Marko Arnautovic will return to the team after his injury. The Inter Milan legionnaire was missing for weeks due to a muscle injury, but is expected to make his comeback in the Champions League against Red Bull Salzburg tomorrow, Wednesday. Phillipp Mwene was also called up, although the full-back has not played a match since September 16th due to injury. David Alaba, Michael Gregoritsch, Kevin Danso and Stefan Posch are also returning, all of whom had to cancel the October games. In addition to Lawal, there is a second debutant in the team squad, Hartberg striker Maximilian Entrup.
Some players who were last there in October are no longer in the squad. Niklas Hedl, Marco Grüll, Junior Adamu, Muhammed Cham, Flavius Daniliuc, Alexander Prass, Dejan Ljubicic and Guido Burgstaller, who was suspended against Estonia, are on the call-up list.
