Hansi Flick, the new national coach who will succeed Jogi Low (from 2006 to 2021), has nominated Baku for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers – the winger is delighted. “I’m happy to be one of the best again,” he said at a press conference in Wolfsburg, recalling the premiere of his senior national team in November. “I found a taste of my debut and came up again with good performances.” It starts on Thursday (8.45pm) against Liechtenstein at Buck & Co in St. Gallen.

Baku is planned for his right-back position in the DFB-LF — he recently played on the offensive right wing in the VFL. But the professional remains calm and plays where he is set. “Last season I often came to the right and collected some points. I define myself as a strong aggressive player and fight well on defense,” said Wolfsburg’s No. 20.

One day before the German national team (8.45 pm), VfLer Weghorst works with the Netherlands in Norway. But he is no longer with Frank de Boer, who took the VFL striker to the European Championships in the summer after a hesitation at the start. Louis van Gaal is now in charge. “I do not really know Louis van Gaal,” he said The heaviest in July SportBUZZER interviewed and reported: “He was once in a game at Alkmaar. At that time I was happy because I scored two goals.

At the same time as Wegorst, Stephen is challenged by Switzerland in a Test match against Greece – and with a new coach. Murat Yakin has taken over as coach of Swedish record coach Vladimir Petkovic (now Girontins Bordeaux) with 78 international appearances that have led to the Confederations’ fortunes for seven years. After the knee injury of Kevin Mbabu and the resignation of Admir Mehmidi, Stephen is the only Swolf in the Wolfsburg squad this time around.

In addition to the trio, Coin Castiles, newcomer Dodi Lukbacchio (both Belgium), John Anthony Brooks (USA) and youngster Anselmo Garcia McNulty (Ireland U21) are also in the running.
