Wück's EM squad of the DFB women: big expectations and open questions!

national coach Christian Wück is eagerly announced by the squad for the upcoming European women's championship in the summer of 2025. On June 11, 2025 at 1:00 p.m., he will present the 23-member line-up in Rust, the location of the European Park. This tournament marks Wück's first major state competition as the DFB women responsible after having previously led the German U17 juniors to remarkable success at EM and World Cup. The European Championship takes place in Switzerland from July 2 to 27.

Wück is optimistic about the opportunities of the DFB women. Despite the failure of key players such as Lena Oberdorf, who was not nominated due to a cruciate ligament tear, and Sara Doorsoun, who has resigned, there is still hope for successful achievements. Alara Sehitler could also become part of the squad due to high school exams, while the nomination of Cora Zicai is still unclear due to muscle complaints.

Kaderkunze and form of the DFB women

The cadre announcement on June 11th follows an intensive preparation, which begins on June 19 in Herzogenaurach. The first test for the team will be the European Championship game against Poland on July 4 in St. Gallen. Wück emphasizes that there is no minimum goal for the tournament. He sees the team at eye level with competitors such as England, France and Spain and expects the day form and happiness to be decisive.

In the last games of the Nations League, the DFB women have flashed strongly: a 4-0 victory against the Netherlands and a 6-0 victory against Austria show the potential in the team. Wück plans to take the majority of the previous players with them, including important actors such as Giulia Gwinn, who acts as captain, and Janina Minge as vice captain. The offensive is listed by players such as Leah Schüller, Klara Bühl and Jule Brand, which are shown in top form.

analysis and challenges

The DFB women are in a strong group C where they meet Poland, Denmark and Sweden. The challenge is further reinforced by the analysis of global soccer network (GSN), which leads to the fact that the team is confronted with a lack of defensive compactness, unclear center and defects in counter press.

Despite these challenges, Germany with its experienced and talented players is part of the extended favorite group behind Spain and England. The mood in the team is optimistic, and Wück hopes to take the momentum of the last successes to make the EM22025 for the DFB women a success.

In the coming weeks, the team dynamics will continue to be put to the test while the contingent for the EM is finalized. The anticipation for the tournament is growing, and all eyes are directed towards Rust when the players are nomed. The DFB is ready to make the final preparations for the upcoming challenges.
