Germany's new head coach Jürgen Klopp might call up 23-year-old Felix Keidel, a surprising move given his limited top-flight experience. Keidel's versatility, having played multiple positions, is highly valued by Klopp, who is looking for fresh faces. He could be considered primarily as a right-back, an area where Germany has lacked a consistent option since Philipp Lahm retired.
