Jonathan Tah injury update
Jonathan Tah, who left the Germany U21 s team hotel on Saturday, suffered a bruised right knee in Friday's 2-1 defeat against Hungary in Paderborn.
It remains to be seen how long the 21-year-old defender will be sidelined. Tah does appear to in with a chance of playing against Mainz in the Bundesliga away game at the weekend.
Germany U21 coach Stefan Kuntz said: "It's a purely precautionary measure. In discussion with Jona, our doctors and Bayer Leverkusen we have reached the decision to send the player home for treatment. Of course, it's a pity one of our leading players misses out on the start of the European Championship qualifiers but we do have options in central defence in our squad."

New seating for the BayArena - donation and reuse of existing seats
A fresh look for the BayArena: The Bayer 04 stadium will have new seating in the form of folding seats for the 2026/27 campaign that will ensure significantly improved seating comfort and simplified movement within the rows of seats. As part of routine replacement after 17 years, fans of the Werkself were able to purchase the existing seats, used to witness the first German league title in the club's history. In addition, a large proportion of the seats will be donated to charitable projects, primarily in the local region. Bayer 04 fans can look forward to new, functional folding seats for the season opener at the beginning of August - still in the club colours of black and red, of course.
