Klopp has to do without Musiala for his DFB debut - Treu starts as a right-back

Jürgen Klopp will have to do without Jamal Musiala for a short time in his debut as national coach. It was said that the FC Bayern professional felt something in his thigh. Further investigations should follow. For Musiala, Nadiem Amiri came into the German starting line-up with seven more World Cup drivers and one international newcomer.

Freiburg's Philipp Treu will play as a right-back at the start of the Nations League in Amsterdam against the Netherlands in the evening. “But then we talked and trained so much that you can say that Philipp definitely noticed that he fit in here,” said Klopp before kick-off on RTL: “He noticed that in every single training session.”

The wingers Karim Adeyemi and Kevin Schade are also in the starting lineup. Marc-André ter Stegen, who returns after a long injury break, is in goal for the national soccer team.

The DFB team is led by captain Joshua Kimmich, who will play in midfield again under Klopp. Other World Cup participants include Jonathan Tah, Nico Schlotterbeck, Nathaniel Brown, Felix Nmecha and Kai Havertz.
