Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann brought the Center-Back Antonio Rudiger back while the Wing player Leroy Sane dropped in his team in his team in September for the upcoming world cup qualifications.
The German coach was hit with a wave of injuries and is without attackers Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz and Tim Kleindienst, first-choice goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen and defenders Nico Schlotterbeck and Benjamin Henrichs.
Nagelsmann mentioned three newcomers in the 23-man team: Eintracht Frankfurt defender Namdi Collins, goalkeeper Augsburg Finn Dahmen and midfield Paul Nebel from Mainz.
Sane, who made 70 Germany appearances since his debut in 2015, was omitted from the first team announced since he moved from Bayern Munich to Galatasaray in the summer.
Rudiger was called for the first time since his eruption in the Spanish cup final in May, when the Real Madrid Center-back threw an object at the referee while he verbally abused him.
In May, Nagelsmann criticized Rudiger’s behavior and said, «He knows that this can no longer happen, otherwise there will be very serious consequences.»
