Internationals: Wirtz selected by Germany – Adli starts U21 Euros
International football continues after the end of the Bundesliga campaign: Eight Bayer 04 players have been called up by their national teams.
As at the end of March, Germany coach Hansi Flick has again called up Werkself player Florian Wirtz for the forthcoming internationals. The 20-year-old will be in the Germany squad starting with the charity match against Ukraine (12 June, 18.00 CEST in Bremen). That is followed by a friendly in Poland (20 June, 20.45 CEST) and a game against Colombia (20 June, 20.45 CEST in Gelsenkirchen).
Werkself Trio in euro 2024 qualifiers
Three Leverkusen players are involved in qualifiers for the 2024 European Championships in Germany: Captain Lukas Hradecky is in the preliminary squad for Finland, Patrick Pentz is with the preliminary Austria squad and Adam Hlozek has been selected for Czechia.
Edmond Tapsoba with Burkina Faso, the leaders in Group B in the qualifiers for the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations, face direct rivals Cape Verde. And Piero Hincapie and Exequiel Palacios will also be on the road: Hincapie has two friendlies with Ecuador in the USA and the Argentina World Cup winner Palacios and his fellow countrymen first play Australia in China's capital Beijing and are then away to Indonesia in Jakarta.
