"?Uncapped Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Weigl has been included in Joachim Löw's final 23-man squad for the Euro 2016, but Marco Reus has been dropped from the squad for the summer's showpiece tournament with fitness concers.
Liverpool's Emre Can was named in the squad as a defender, while Manchester United's veteran midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger was also included despite a deeply mediocre season at Old Trafford - with age and fitness concerns appearing to catch up to him.

The Germans are looking to follow in the footsteps of Spain four years ago and follow up a World Cup triumph with victory in the European Championships, although France are currently favourites for the trophy on home turf.
