Germany Women’s Euro 2022 squad: Team preview

Historically, the Euros has been Germany’s competition with the club winning it a record eight times, including a run of six consecutive championships from 1995 to 2013. However, 2017 was their lowest ever finish when they failed to make the semi-finals.

There is likely to be a lot of exciting talent in the Germany Euro 2022 squad with plenty of young players coming through into the national team over the past couple of years. Going forward, the Bayern Munich trio of Lea Schüller, Klara Bühl, and Sydney Lohmann are all very highly rated whilst 19 year old Jule Brand has already signed a deal with Wolfsburg off the back of her mesmerising performances for Hoffenheim. Meanwhile Wolfsburg’s Tabea Waßmuth is currently the Champions League’s top scorer with nine goals in this season’s competition.

Germany will however be without Chelsea midfielder Melanie Leupolz at the tournament after she announced earlier this year that she was pregnant with her first child. Dzsenifer Marozsán will also be absent after she had surgery on her knee.
