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).
