Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz, Germany’s two 21-year-old midfield creators, said Wednesday their connection on and off the pitch could carry the tournament hosts to a fourth Euros title.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann rejected suggestions Musiala and Wirtz, who play similar roles for club sides Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, could not play together in the same team, with both potentially set to be starters at Euro 2024.
