Klopp ponders Füllkrug's return: Age vs. Goals?
28 Oct
Summary
- Germany's squad for Serbia and Netherlands is set for November 5.
- Niclas Füllkrug's potential return to the national team is uncertain.
- Germany currently sits third in their Nations League Group A2 standings.
Germany's football coach Jürgen Klopp is scheduled to announce his squad for upcoming Nations League matches on November 5, 2026. The team will face Serbia on November 13 and then host the Netherlands in Berlin on November 16, 2026. A key point of discussion is the potential inclusion of striker Niclas Füllkrug. Füllkrug, who was previously part of the Euro 2024 squad, last played for Germany in June 2025 due to injuries.
Despite being 33 years old, Füllkrug has demonstrated outstanding form this season, netting 11 goals in just nine appearances for Werder Bremen. Coach Klopp, however, has hinted at a preference for younger players, despite Füllkrug's impressive scoring record. In the Nations League standings, Germany currently holds third place in Group A2, three points behind the leading Netherlands.
