[2024 European Cup Germany] Germany Euro 2024 squad: Julian Nagelsmann's full team

The Germany Euro 2024 squad is nearly complete, with manager Julian Nagelsmann having announced a 27-man preliminary team as preparations get underway for the tournament on home soil. 

With four goalkeepers selected, though, Nagelsmann will have the tough decision of omitting just one of his shotstoppers ahead of UEFA's deadline for final Euro 2024 squad submissions on June 7 - seven days before their opening game against Scotland.

Crucially, the Germany Euro 2024 squad doesn't feature either Mats Hummels or Leon Goretzka, with Naglesmann stating that he did talk to both players in an attempt to explain his decision. 

“I had long talk with both Hummels and Goretzka. They're very disappointed as they’re out of the list," Nagelsmann said. “I tried to explain why they weren't included. It's understandable that they are sad."

Despite that, there's plenty of reasons for Germany to get excited about Euro 2024, as they aim to be crowned champions of Europe for the first time since 1996. 

With Antonio Rudiger and Jonathan Tah in defence, Toni Kroos, Ilkay Gundogan, Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz in midfield, and forwards such as Kai Havertz and Thomas Muller, Germany head into Euro 2024 not only as hosts with the confidence of a nation backing them, but also as one of the favourites. 

Qualifying automatically could well have had a detrimental impact on Die Mannschaft's preparations, though, with the three-time winners having not played a competitive match since the World Cup 2022 group stages. Poor performances also saw Hansi Flick become the first Germany boss to ever be sacked, as Germany stuttered in friendlies against the likes of Japan, Turkey and Austria.

Their Euros group also contains Hungary and Switzerland, meaning the Germans are certainly confident of progressing to the knockout stages unscathed - especially after  March's friendly wins over France and the Netherlands.
