There are 23 players called up by the German coach Christian Wuck for the friendly matches against Switzerland and Italy between November and December. The only news is the call-ups of the young players Cora Zicaiborn in 2004, e Alara Sehitlerborn in 2006, both making their first call to the senior national team. Hendrich and Mahmutovic then return to the squad and will make up the goalkeeping trio with Johannes and Winkler given the absences of Berger, who decided to decline the call after an intense season, and Grohs, who is undergoing treatment after the discovery of a malignant tumor .
“The last few days have shown that sport takes a back seat when it comes to health. Mala’s diagnosis moved us all greatly and still moves us. – explained the coach speaking of the Bayern player – I am in personal contact with Mala and also with her club and I wish her all the best in her recovery journey. The doors of the national team are always open for her”.
“We can’t wait for the last two international matches of the year to arrive which are a starter to the European Championship which will be played in Switzerland. – continues Wuck speaking about the friendlies – Our goal is to test as many players as possible and expand the number of possible players called up, we want to give new players the chance to show themselves before the European championship. Our goal is to reach the Nations League with a well-structured team to then prepare for the summer tournament.”
