That\u2019s our goal. But we can\u2019t go one meter shorter than we did in the best moments of the quarterfinal against Italy, because I consider Portugal to be a very strong team. We\u2019ll give it our all to make it to the final in Munich,\u201d said Nagelsmann (as captured by <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/iMiaSanMia\/status\/1925484683510284718\">@iMiaSanMia<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p id=\"ZtC1Lp\">Nagelsmann\u2019s complete call-up list is below and was covered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bavarianfootballworks.com\/2025\/5\/22\/24435045\/bayern-munich-german-national-team-kimmich-sane-bischof-goretzka-gnabry-wirtz-tah-nagelsmann-musiala\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> by Bavarian Football Works: <\/p>\n<p id=\"rNiljs\">Nagelsmann will be without several key players like Jamal Musiala, Antonio R\u00fcdiger, and Kai Havertz due to injury.  <\/p>\n<p id=\"NBVg0n\">\u201cThey all wanted to be there, which is a good sign. But I decided against [calling them up], even though one or two of them could\u2019ve been able to get short appearances. We have to think about the fit players and the entire group. We have to make sure the three guys are fully fit at the start of the new season for Arsenal, Real and Bayern because we have a very important World Cup next year,\u201d Nagelsmann noted. <\/p>\n<p id=\"Gd1hdU\">Looking for more thoughts on the latest Bayern Munich news?
