Nagelsmann surprises with DFB nomination: Ortega for the first time in the squad!

national coach Julian Nagelsmann surprises the football world with a courageous decision: 32-year-old goalkeeper Stefan Ortega could be appointed to the DFB-Elf for the upcoming international matches against Bosnia-Herzegovina on November 16 and Hungary on November 19 and Hungary on November 19th! According to reports from Sky and Bild, Ortega, who is often only on the bench at Manchester City behind the Brazilian keeper Ederson, will take the place of Janis Blaswich (Red Bull Salzburg).

The tension increases, because Ortega could become the key to successfully completed the international year. Nagelsmann has clear ambitions: two more victories are supposed to start with a positive feeling in the World Cup year 2025. In the meantime, Alexander Nübel (VfB Stuttgart) and Oliver Baumann (TSG Hoffenheim) hope to establish themselves as number 1 in the DFB team until the injured Marc-André Ter Stegen (FC Barcelona) returns.

surprises in the DFB squad?

On Thursday, Nagelsmann will announce the squad for the last two games of the unbeaten DFB team at 11 a.m. Fans can look forward to exciting changes! Perhaps Nicolas Kühn, who drew attention to RB Leipzig with his goals for Celtic Glasgow, or Malick Thiaw, who shines as a scorer for AC Milan. But Nagelsmann found his proven team after the home European Championship and emphasizes that every player knows his role. Captain Joshua Kimmich praises the functioning system and the clear distribution of tasks in the team.
