Jürgen Klopp Leaves 17-Year-Old Wael Mohya Out of Germany Squad to Play Serbia
The surprise call-up will travel with Germany, but Klopp is using the 17-year-old to assess him for future matches.
- Germany coach Jürgen Klopp excluded 17-year-old Wael Mohya from the squad to face Serbia in the Nations League, though the midfielder will travel with the 23-player team to Belgrade for Friday's match.
- Klopp previously signaled that the surprise callup for the Borussia Moenchengladbach midfielder was primarily to assess him for the future and familiarize him with the squad environment.
- Mohya became Borussia Moenchengladbach's youngest ever player upon debuting at 16 last December and has scored four times in 24 games, including two goals in nine appearances this season.
- Full back Ridle Baku replaced defender Waldemar Anton, who withdrew with a muscle issue, while Klopp opted against calling up Barcelona winger Karim Adeyemi and Juventus forward Nick Woltemade.
- The Serbia game represents a critical test for Germany's new-look side, which has won only one of Klopp's first four matches; the team faces the Netherlands on Monday following Friday's fixture.
