Klopp Splits Germany Into Two Squads for Nations League Fixtures

SEO Title: Jürgen Klopp names two Germany squads for Nations League window

Meta Description: Germany coach Jürgen Klopp has selected 44 players across two squads for four UEFA Nations League matches against the Netherlands, Greece and Serbia.

Germany’s next international window will unfold in two stages, with Jürgen Klopp choosing to divide his plans between separate squads rather than summon one group for the full four-match stretch. The new Germany coach has called up 44 players in all, allocating 24 to the opening fixtures and 20 to the later pair.

Germany’s split squad plan for September and October

The first selection will travel to the Netherlands on 24 September before Germany host Greece three days later. Klopp’s second group is scheduled to face Serbia away from home on 1 October, then meet Greece again on 4 October in Athens.

All four matches form part of the UEFA Nations League programme, taking Germany from the Netherlands to Serbia and on to the Greek capital during a compact international period. The arrangement gives Klopp two distinct groups of players across the same window as he begins his work on the Germany bench.

The four fixtures are:

  • Netherlands v Germany — 24 September
  • Germany v Greece — 27 September
  • Serbia v Germany — 1 October
  • Greece v Germany — 4 October
