German defender Antonio Rüdiger announced, this Tuesday, his farewell from the Germany national team. The player is 33 years old and represented the country for the last time at the 2026 World Cup.
Rüdiger explained that he is focused on his work in Spain, where he plays for Real Madrid. The German center-back is currently playing in the Spanish league under the command of José Mourinho.
This decision marks the end of an important chapter in Rüdiger's international career, as he wore the German national team jersey for several years. The defender thus leaves the national team after a distinguished career in service of the country.
