Wück in front of Wembley: DFB team fights with defense problems and resignations

- The new national coach Christian Wück faces huge challenges in German football before the excited classic against European champion England.

The Situation could hardly be more dramatic: the new coach Christian Wück faces his debut on Friday, 8.30 p.m., confronted with massive staff worries in London! The painful absence of Alexandra Popp, who said goodbye after her resignation from the national team, and the injury -related departure of striker Lea Schüller let the alarm bells ring. And while Wück recognizes the biggest problem on the defensive, there are big questions about the list and future of the German national women's team.

personnel crisis situation before mega-duel

"The defense is our biggest problem" is the clear statement of the trainer, who is under great pressure before the game against the strong English offensive! Marina Hegering, the chief of defense, ended her career, while the competition in the squad melted due to injuries, especially due to the cruciate ligament rupture by Bibiane Schulze Solano. The talented central defender Sophia Kleinhernen from Eintracht Frankfurt could be a bright spot, which is targeted as a possible option. Kleinherne himself decidedly explained: "I just want to be here because I deserve it."

And as if the problems are not enough, the offensive forces have also reduced: Schüller and goal scorer Laura Freelang are missing due to illness! While returnees such as Selina Cerci (Hoffenheim) and new start Giovanna Hoffmann (Leipzig) take the stage, they forge and burn big plans and burn to repay Wück's trust. "Everyone is hot to show themselves," says Cerci, while Popp and Hegering celebrate their emotional farewell on Monday.

Giulia Gwinn will appear against England as a DFB captain and will be traded as a future leader. Wück plans to develop a sustainable strategy for the squad and initially leaves the K question (captain) in an uncertain: "I hope for further knowledge." The football world looks forward to this turbulent but decisive chapter in German women's football!
