The German Football Association has announced that Thomas Muller has been called up to the squad for the upcoming friendlies against Japan and France, as Niclas Füllkrug is doubtful with an injury.

Thomas Müller has received a late call-up to the German national team for the upcoming friendlies against Japan and France.

The 33-year-old Bayern Munich veteran will join the squad to cover for Niclas Füllkrug, who is struggling with an injury.

Füllkrug will still travel, but may not be available for the upcoming matches due to a minor tendon strain.
