Joachim Low calls up Luca Waldschmidt to Germany squad
Kroos, ter Stegen and Can all recalled for games against Netherlands and Northern Ireland
Berlin. Germany coach Joachim Low called up Luca Waldschmidt for the first time on Thursday and recalled Toni Kroos, Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Emre Can for European Championship qualifiers against the Netherlands and Northern Ireland.
The 23-year-old Waldschmidt, the leading scorer with seven goals at the Under-21 European Championship, is making the step up to the senior team for the games in Hamburg on September 6 and Belfast three days later.
Kroos and ter Stegen missed Germany’s 2-0 win over Belarus and 8-0 rout of Estonia in June with injuries, while Can is back in the squad for the first time since last October.
