Tim Kleindienst, the 29-year-old Borussia Monchengladbach forward, has just received his first call-up to the German national team under coach Julian Nagelsmann. This exciting news comes ahead of Germany’s UEFA Nations League matches against Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Netherlands ¹ ².
Kleindienst’s journey to the national team has been quite remarkable. He was the top scorer in Bundesliga 2 during the 2022/23 season and continued to impress with 12 goals for Heidenheim in the top flight last term. His strong start at Gladbach, with two goals and an assist in the first five matchdays, ultimately caught Nagelsmann’s attention ².
This call-up is a testament to Kleindienst’s hard work and perseverance. He previously earned 20 caps for Germany’s U20 team but had yet to make his senior debut. The injury to Niclas Fullkrug created an opportunity for Kleindienst to join the squad, and he’s now poised to make his mark on the international stage ².
Germany’s squad for the upcoming matches includes notable players like Serge Gnabry, Joshua Kimmich, and Florian Wirtz. With five players from VfB Stuttgart, the team is looking strong and ready to take on the challenges ahead ².
