Julian Nagelsmann ensures Bremen’s reunification. Marvin Ducksch is allowed to audition with his former colleague Niclas Füllkrug. Even without Manuel Neuer, there is movement among the goalkeepers.
Julian Nagelsmann is bringing two more unexpected debutants into the national football team for the last international matches of the year. The national coach nominated attacker Marvin Ducksch from Werder Bremen and goalkeeper Janis Blaswich from RB Leipzig for the first time in his 27-player squad for his home premiere against Turkey on November 18th in Berlin and the duel against Austria in Vienna three days later.
The recently injured Serge Gnabry from FC Bayern Munich and Leipzig’s Benjamin Henrichs as well as Dortmund’s Felix Nmecha also belong to the DFB circle again. Nagelsmann has to do without young Bayern star Jamal Musiala because of his muscle injury.
Timo Werner continues to be left out
Compared to the national coach’s debut in October against the USA (3:1) and Mexico (2:2), this time Bernd Leno, David Raum and Kevin Behrens are no longer in the squad. RB attacker Timo Werner, Nico Schlotterbeck and his ailing BVB colleague Emre Can were again not taken into account. In contrast to Behrens, the October newcomers Chris Führich and Robert Andrich are allowed to audition again among the European Championship candidates.
“I’m absolutely looking forward to these two games. I’m looking forward to it being emotional and loud. There will also be a lot of Turkish fans in the stadium in Berlin. And against Austria it’s a neighborhood duel, a prestigious duel in a beautiful city and in a very historic stadium “It will certainly be an extraordinary atmosphere and an important game for us in Vienna too. They are two tests that we want to use and that are characterized by emotionality,” said Nagelsmann when the squad was announced on Friday.
After the test games, Nagelsmann still has the eagerly awaited draw for the European Championship groups on December 2nd in Hamburg. The next EM tests will take place at the end of March. Two games against well-known competitors are planned.
