The German Football Association (DFB) has adopted a new strategy for announcing the Euro roster, by announcing the names of selected players in advance through different channels. Last night, Borussia Dortmund defender Schlotterbeck became the first player to be named in Germany's Euro roster.
The German Football Association (DFB) will reportedly be gradually announcing the list of players selected for the Euros over the next few days through the DFB, the media, celebrities, internet celebrities and fans. Four players will be announced each day to energize fans' anticipation for Germany's matches and to create a Europa League atmosphere.
The next player to be selected will be announced today at 16:00 BST and will be announced by a caretaker and internet personality. And the German Football Association will also announce the names of the next batch of players via social media.
The final Germany Euro squad will be officially announced by head coach Nagelsmann in Berlin this Thursday.
