National coach Christian Wück has announced the DFB women’s contingent for the European Championship. He relies on a mixture that has already been successful in the past.
The Swiss bobsleigh and the Matterhorn flash in the background, the sun’s rays on the face. In the Swiss theme area of the Europe Park in Rust, the European Championship anticipation of the German team on Thursday (June 12th, 2025) really started driving.
However, national coach Christian Wück wants to avoid a roller coaster ride in Switzerland (July 2 to 27). For this he stands with his 23 player -comprehensive squad, which comes with no great surprises, but with a lot of quality. Young and old, vigor and experience – that has always been a mix that promises success.
The DFB women can be expected
The two final Nation League games against the Netherlands (4: 0) and Austria (6-0) have shown what is in the DFB selection. Joy, straightforwardness, accuracy and a significantly increased consistency have shown the competition from Spain, England or Sweden that the European record champion at the European Championship in Switzerland can be expected.
In addition to a good mix, the national coach also relies on team spirit in his squad composition. Because he was still a success of German women’s teams – and has recently awakened after a hooky start under Wück.
Gwinn and Mining as a link
Giulia Gwinn found her role as a captain and, together with her Co Janina Minge, is an important link to the team for the 52-year-old. The team elder Ann-Katrin Berger in the goal and the most experienced, Sara Däbritz in midfield should ensure stability. Franziska Kett stands for the carefreeness that a team needs to play a good tournament.
So why not. The German women’s football national team in this constellation can be expected at the European Championship. Is it enough for the title? That depends on many factors. The prerequisites for a successful tournament are there, the anticipation too. The further preparation can begin.
