Finn Jeltsch says he wants to make a strong impression on Jürgen Klopp and his staff after earning his first Germany call-up.

The VfB Stuttgart centre-back is one of nine potential debutants in Klopp’s 25-man squad for UEFA Nations League fixtures against Serbia and Greece. According to DPA, the 20-year-old called playing for the national team “the greatest thing there is”.

“I would say I’m an aggressive defender, brave and also attack-minded. I hope I can show what I can do and that he will like it,” he said, adding that he wants to convince the coaching staff of his qualities.

Having recently made his Champions League debut for Stuttgart, he is now closing in on another milestone.

On international standards, he highlighted Spain, the defending European and World Cup champions, as the benchmark. “That’s where we want to get to as well,” he said.
