Just over two weeks ago, Hamit Altintop (41), chairman of the Turkish Football Association, told Sky: “Uzun played for our U17 and he is our player. He was born in 2005 and we already have two players in the senior team with Arda Güler and Kenan Yildiz. The next one should be Can Uzun, he knows that too.”

The news portal also reports that Uzun has already decided on Turkey. According to BILD information, there is nothing to it. Even if he actually played for Turkey in both games in March, he would not be committed to Turkey.
Reason: Since Uzun played for Turkey in his youth, he would not change the association. A change of association is possible up to the age of 21, provided the player has not played more than three competitive or test games. Exception: The player takes part in a World Cup or European Championship. That means: A move to the DFB would still be possible if he now plays test matches for Turkey. It would be different if you were to play at the European Championships taking place in the summer.

Spicy: On the same days as Turkey in March, the German U21 will also play two European Championship qualifying games once morest Kosovo (March 22) and Israel (March 26). If Uzun only played in one of the two games for the DFB, the door would be closed for Turkey. FIFA rules state that you cannot change associations twice. Uzun has already played for Turkey for U17 and U18.
That’s why the director of the national team Rudi Völler (63) and the managing director of sports Andreas Rettig (60) were personally in Nuremberg two weeks ago to convince the offensive man to join the DFB (BILD reported exclusively).
According to BILD information, Uzun will soon be making his own statement regarding what will happen next for him in terms of his international career.
