David Raum on his call up:
“Of course, I’ve had my eye on it all season long that there will be a big highlight at the end of the season with the home European Championships. It’s probably the last chance in my career to play another tournament at home. And being there now is of course a huge dream. It is my second tournament that I have been able to play for Germany and I am very happy to be part of this team.
I think it’s a nice story that the call ups are a little more special this year. Of course, we knew a little in advance that it would happen like this, but not how exactly it would be announced. A great idea with the announcement at the airport. Now I’m happy that it’s out and I can officially accept all the congratulations.
Of course I’m looking forward to every game, especially the opening game and what the atmosphere will be like. If we win the first game, something big can happen and it will get better for us every game. But playing against teammates from RB Leipzig is something special, especially at such a big tournament.”
