Klopp excludes Schlotterbeck from Germany squad to face Greece
Jürgen Klopp, the head coach of the Germany national team, has excluded Nico Schlotterbeck from the official squad for the match against Greece in the UEFA Nations League, according to reports from "Sky Sport Germany".
Borussia Dortmund defender was not included in the match squad submitted to UEFA by the deadline last night.
The decision to exclude Schlotterbeck aims to manage his participation rate and physical load, after the player recently returned from injury. He is also one of the few players who remained with the national team throughout the current international break.
Jan Bissek is increasing his chances of participating against Greece, while Conte will wear the number 15 shirt of Schlotterbeck in the match.
It is noteworthy that all players from the second list of the Germany national team are already on the pitch today, including Schlotterbeck, despite his name not being included in the official match list.
