The Werkself trio can take a break up to 2 June before the Germany squad meets up in Venlo for a short training camp in preparation for the two qualifiers.
While Julian Brandt and Kai Havertz will then be able to go on holiday, the services of Jonathan Tah will be required for the U21 European Championships (16 to 30 June in Italy and San Marino). Three days after the Estonia match, the 23-year-old defender will join up with the rest of the Germany junior squad at their team HQ. At the U21 Euros, the holders Germany face Denmark (17 June, 21.00 CET) and Serbia (20 June, 21.00 CET) in the group stage. "Jonathan Tah knows this situation as he is one of the key players in the U21s and the captain. At the same time, we want to keep on introducing him at the highest level," said Germany coach Joachim Löw in explaining his decision before adding: "Basically, players who have been with the senior squad obviously gain in confidence. And that can only help the U21s in a tournament."
Germany U21 coach Stefan Kuntz highlighted Tah's role as an "absolute leader on and off the pitch". According to Kuntz, the Werkself number four will not find it difficult joining up with the rest of the team at the training camp (2 to 11 June in South Tyrol).
The Croatia Football Association announced on Monday that Tin Jedvai is in the World Cup runners-up squad for the Euro qualifier against Wales (8 June) and for the friendly against Tunisia (11 June).
