The countdown is on! In just under one month, on 20 July, the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand begins. For that reason, the German national team will get together on Tuesday for the first of two training camps in Herzogenaurach, Bavaria. No fewer than 10 VfL Wolfsburg players will be involved, while others will also be joining up with their respective national teams over the coming days for training camps and friendlies to prepare for the tournament. Here’s an overview of who’s where.
