Tunisia’s national coach Alain Giresse called up the 1.96 metre tall Bayer 04 U19 central defender in a surprise move a couple of weeks ago and Lamti went on to make his full international debut against Iraq (2-0) last Friday. The youngster from the Rhineland has progressed through all the Bayer 04 junior teams but has never played for a Germany team.
Lamti, who trained with the first team under Peter Bosz, made a name for himself last season with impressive performances. The homegrown talent played the full 90 minutes in 24 of 26 games in the U19 Bundesliga (West) scoring two goals.
At the Africa Cup in Egypt, Tunisia face Angola (24 June, 19.00 CET), Mali (28 June, 16.30 CET) and Mauritania (2 July, 21.00 CET).
Bayer 04 Leverkusen continue cooperation with proven sleeve partner Talcid in the coming DFB Pokal campaign. In the current season, the famous Bayer brand – starting with the first round tie at Baden-Württemberg Regional League side SG Sonnenhof Großaspach on Friday – will be displayed with the historic chameleon logo on the right sleeve of the Werkself players jerseys. Bayer 04 won the DFB Pokal for the first time in 1993 with that logo on their chests – Talcid was the official jersey sponsor of the Werkself from 1991 to 1995.
