Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann has revealed his 23-man squad for the upcoming September World Cup qualifiers, with some eye-catching decisions that have sparked debate among fans and pundits alike.
Rüdiger Back in the Fold
Defender Antonio Rüdiger makes his return to the national setup, bringing experience and solidity to a backline that has struggled with consistency in recent months. His recall is seen as a major boost for Germany’s defensive structure heading into a crucial stage of qualification.
Sané Dropped After Galatasaray Switch
One of the biggest surprises was the omission of Leroy Sané. The winger, who recently completed a move to Galatasaray, has been left out despite his talent and international pedigree. Reports suggest Nagelsmann is focusing on form and tactical fit as he reshapes the squad.
Injuries Force Fresh Faces
With Jamal Musiala and goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen sidelined due to injury, Nagelsmann has handed opportunities to three newcomers, signaling his willingness to blend young talent with established stars. Their inclusion adds both unpredictability and excitement to the squad.
🇩🇪 A Squad Under the Microscope
Germany’s recent performances have been underwhelming, and the pressure is mounting on Nagelsmann to deliver results. The combination of experienced leaders like Rüdiger and hungry new call-ups could prove decisive as the team looks to secure qualification.
