The holiday is almost over for this top star!

At the end of June, Germany’s U21 national team wants to defend the title at the European Championships in Georgia and Romania (June 21 to July 8). It starts on June 22nd against the Israel youth team.

At noon today, U21 national coach Antonio Di Salvo (43), successor to successful coach Stefan Kuntz (60/national coach Turkey), will announce his squad for the title defense mission.

An absolute top star will also appear on the list. BILD learned: Dortmund’s miracle striker Youssoufa Moukoko (18) is nominated. And with the DFB selection, he should immediately ban the BVB runners-up drama from his head.

Moukoko goes to the EM

At just 18, it will be his second U21 tournament. However, due to injury, he was not used in the 2021 group phase and for the same reason was absent from the final round and the title win (the tournament was divided into two because of Corona).

Now the two-time A national player wants to shoot the youngsters to success. His quota with the U21s is (of course) outstanding: Moukoko scored six stalls in four competitive appearances.

And wrote history along the way. At 16 years and 278 days, he is the youngest debutant of our U21s and at the same time the youngest goalscorer of all time. Incomprehensible!

However, Di Salvo has to do without numerous other stars. Moukoko’s teammate Karim Adeyemi (21/torn muscle), Wolfsburg’s shooting star Felix Nmecha (22/ankle), Southampton defender Armel Bella-Kotchap (21/thigh) and Mainz attacker Jonathan Burkardt (22/knee) had to pull out injured.

Leverkusen’s playmaker Florian Wirtz (20) will not be there either. In 2021, the mega talent still celebrated winning the title, but is only intended for the senior national team in the future.

Incidentally, at the age of 20, Bavaria’s master maker Jamal Musiala could also travel to Georgia. But the same applies to the offensive dribbler as to colleague Wirtz.

On the other hand, Stuttgart’s Josha Vagnoman (22) is there – the second piece of good news for the simple national defender.

On Thursday evening, VfB defeated Hamburger SV in the relegation first leg. Vagnoman scored a goal against his former club to make it 3-0.
