The injury-related loss of Robin Gosens could help David Raum to make his debut in the DFB team on Sunday evening. The new addition of TSG Hoffenheim would at least be the obvious solution on the left side of the four-man defense chain of new national coach Hansi Flick.
At its premiere on Thursday against Liechtenstein (2-0), Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen made history as the first debutant of the Flick era. Besides space, Karim Adeyemi from RB Salzburg and Nico Schlotterbeck from SC Freiburg are also hoping for their first appearance for the senior national team against Armenia on Sunday or against Iceland on Wednesday evening.
Three clubs are hoping for new national players
For the three clubs of the top talent, the DFB debut would be associated with some prestige. fussball.news Against this background, asks who of the 18 clubs in the Bundesliga could be the next debutant. The only requirement: the players must not have played an A international match with the eagle on their chest.
FC Bayern: Armindo Sieb, attacker
Naturally, there are hardly any German professionals at the record champions who do not play a major role at the DFB. Sven Ulreich was once nominated, but did not play. Josip Stanisic could be an issue if he decided against Croatia. As one of the top German talents, Armindo Sieb may have the best cards, albeit not in the near future.
RB Leipzig: Tom Krauss, midfielder
In Sidney Raebiger, the Saxons have a 16-year-old exceptional talent who made his debut in the DFB Cup. Observers also have a lot of confidence in the new U19 national player Ben Klefisch in the future. But it could go faster for Tom Krauss, who is currently on loan to 1.FC Nürnberg. There and with the newly formed U21 he is set as a service provider at the start of the new season.
Borussia Dortmund: Youssoufa Moukoko, striker
At BVB, the question is answered quickly. If nothing unexpected happens, Youssoufa Moukoko will sooner or later move up from the U21 to the A-Team.
VfL Wolfsburg: Lukas Nmecha, striker
In addition to Adeyemi, Lukas Nmecha was also traded as a potential debutant under Flick as a result of the German success at the U21 EURO in the summer. The new addition of the wolves embodies a type of player that does not seem to exist in the form of the DFB.
Eintracht Frankfurt: Ragnar Ache, striker
With two goals at the Tokyo Olympic Games, Ragnar Ache may also have secured a permanent place in the notebooks. “Of course, I have the German senior team in the back of my mind,” says the 23-year-old in the exclusive fussball.news-Interview.
Bayer Leverkusen: Emrehan Gedikli, Stürmer
After Wirtz has just made his debut, it could take a while before the next Werkself kicker is new. Emrehan Gedikli has played in all of the DFB’s youth teams and made his debut in the Europa League at the age of 17.
Union Berlin: Marvin Friedrich, central defender
For many observers, Marvin Friedrich should have long since deserved a call from Joachim Löw or Flick. At the age of 25, however, the defender could still receive this honor.
Borussia Mönchengladbach: Luca Netz, left-back
The left wing has been a problem position in German football for years, on which Flick could try a lot in the future. Luca Netz, who has just moved from Hertha BSC to Gladbach, is considered to be one of the greatest talents in German football.
VfB Stuttgart: Florian Müller, goalkeeper
The Swabians have several contenders, such as defenders Waldemar Anton and Marc Kempf, U21 European champion Mateo Klimowicz or top talent Lilian Egloff. But because there is a shortage of young goalkeepers of high quality, Florian Müller may have the best prospects. At the Olympics he was already the German number 1.
SC Freiburg: Nico Schlotterbeck, central defender
Schlotterbeck could debut on Sunday or Wednesday.
TSG Hoffenheim: David Raum, left-back
A debut by Raum against Armenia is considered likely.
1.FSV Mainz 05: Jonathan Burkardt, attacker
As the new captain of the U21 of the DFB, Jonathan Burkardt is automatically in the focus of those responsible. The 21-year-old would have even better chances if he were a physically stronger center forward like Nmecha or Ache.
FC Augsburg: Felix Uduokhai, central defender
Felix Uduokhai was already part of the senior national team in November 2020, but was not used at the time. That Flick now preferred Schlotterbeck to him is probably not a positive sign in the short term. Nevertheless, the 23-year-old will continue to have every chance in the future.
Hertha BSC: Marton Dardai, central defender
19-year-old Marton Dardai was one of the few winners at Hertha in the preseason. And not just because he is the son of coach Pal Dardai. Among other things, the left foot is considered to be outstanding in opening the game and has a bright future ahead of him.
Arminia Bielefeld: Stefan Ortega, goalkeeper
If Manuel Neuer, Bernd Leno or Kevin Trapp were injured, Stefan Ortega would have moved up into the DFB squad at the EURO. In case of doubt, it would have to be shown whether his standing is so high even after he said goodbye to goalkeeping coach Andreas Köpke.
1.FC Cologne: Noah Katterbach, left-back
In a sense, FC can also pat itself on the shoulder for Wirtz’s debut, after all, the billy goats trained the Leverkusen man for years. With Noah Katterbach, the people of Domstadt could celebrate a ‘very’ own national player again in the future. In addition to the network, it is considered to be the future at the far left.
VfL Bochum: Armel Bella Kotchap, central defender
VfL has not provided a DFB international since Paul ‘Slawo’ suitor. The best chances from the current squad should have Armel Bella Kotchap as a great defensive talent. The 19-year-old last made his debut with the U21s.
SpVgg Greuther Fürth: Jamie Leweling, attacker
Around 100 years ago, the shamrock was a really big hit with the DFB team. If Raum hadn’t left the club in the direction of Hoffenheim, the return to the big stage would now beckon. As a new U21 national player, Jamie Leweling has the best chance of following his ex-colleague.
