The guard, who had torn his cruciate ligament on October 19 last year, told Sport Bild that he saw his EM chances at “100 percent”.
And in fact, the chances are not too bad that Süle can appear for Germany at the pan-European championships in June. If everything goes according to plan, the 24-year-old even wants to play games for FC Bayern this season. “The goal would be to join the team in April. Then I know that it will take some time before I get used to the game. Team training does not mean ready to play. "
