Bayer Leverkusen's Robert Andrich has been selected by Germany for this summer's European Championship. Felix Kroos, Toni's brother, announced this in their joint podcast Einfach mal luppen. The 29-year-old midfielder from that Workself can therefore prepare for his first final tournament with Germany.

Germany is being creative with the announcement of the European Championship selection. While almost all countries will announce the 26 names at once, our eastern neighbors have chosen to reveal a number of names in recent days. In the run-up to Thursday, when the full selection will be announced, influencers and fans, among others, were used to reveal part of the selection.

Nico Schlotterbeck, Jonathan Tah, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Manuel Neuer, Niclas Füllkrug, Chris Führich, Robin Koch, Kai Havertz, Maximilian Mittelstädt, Leroy Sané, Pascal Gross, Joshua Kimmich and Antonio Rüdiger are now known to be part of the European Championship. -selection. Andrich can also postpone his holiday for a while.

It is Felix Kroos who delivers the news in the podcast. “I am very happy to announce this, because Rob (Andrich, ed.) is a good friend of mine. I can officially say that he is going to the European Championships. I played with him at FC Union Berlin.”

It is not yet known whether Toni Kroos will be selected for the European Championship, although that chance seems very high. The Real Madrid midfielder returned to the national team in March after years of absence. Kroos can laugh at his brother's news. “We may have now released the name of a player who will cost me my place in the selection,” he laughs. “That would complete the circle for me.”

Andrich is having a dream season with Leverkusen and has played 42 games so far. The right foot was good for five goals and as many assists. Andrich has already won the national title with his club and is in the final of both the DFP-Pokal and the Europa League. He may therefore join the German national team with three trophies in his pocket.
