The German national team announced that Bayern Munich star Alexander Pavlovic has been excluded from participating in Euro 2024 with Julian Nagelsmann’s squad due to his suffering from tonsillitis.
Pavlovich only played one match for Germany, which was against Ukraine in a friendly match last week, before a fever struck him and caused him to be unable to participate again in training.
Although the trend at first was for the player to only miss Scotland’s opening match, it was confirmed that the 20-year-old needed more time to recover and recover.
For this reason, Nagelsmann decided to exclude Pavlovic from the list participating in Euro 2024, and replace him with another player who can participate immediately.
Everyone initially predicted that it would be Leon Goretzka’s chance to return to the Germans, but the surprise was when Nagelsmann chose Borussia Dortmund captain Emre Can instead of Pavlovic.
It is noteworthy that the 30-year-old Chan has great international experience, having played 43 matches and previously participated in Euro 2016 and Euro 2020.
