Klopp arranges meeting with VfB Stuttgart’s Dženan Pejčinović
Germany’s national team boss Jürgen Klopp has scheduled a personal Treffen with VfB‑Stuttgart’s young Stürmer Dženan Pejčinović. The VfB‑Talent moved from VfL Wolfsburg to Stuttgart in the Sommer and, despite a solid youth résumé, has yet to earn an A‑Länderspiel. Klopp’s Runde through the Bundesliga brings the Blick to the striker.
Pejčinović’s move and national team status
Pejčinović has progressed through every U‑Mannschaften of the DFB, culminating in seven appearances for the U21 side. Despite this pathway, he remains uncapped by the German A‑Auswahl, making his profile a curiosity for the Stuttgarter national‑team scouts. Er continues to train with the senior squad but has not featured in a senior match.
Nach three goals in the first round of the DFB‑Pokal, Pejčinović entered the 1‑5 defeat against Bayern Munich but was withdrawn after 62 minutes. The Bundesliga‑Auftaktspiel between Bayern and VfB saw him make little impact, and the Deutsche press noted his subdued performance. The limited minutes left the striker behind his teammates, the other Spielern, who continued to press.
Klopp’s Bundesliga tour and message to players
Der neue Bundestrainer has already established Kontakt with several Nationalspielern, including a conversation with Florian Wirtz that was aired on Sky. Bei the same broadcast, Klopp confirmed plans to meet Jamal Musiala during Bayern’s training session on Sunday. The coach’s itinerary also features a visit to Augsburg to watch the FCA‑Schalke match.

Die Botschaft, Klopp said, is simple: ‘We must make everything more intensive, and everyone agrees.’ Er added that better play is possible if each player does a little more. The statement underscored his ambition to raise the national team’s standards.
Klopp will announce his first squad on 17 September, ahead of Nations‑League Spiele in the Netherlands, Greece, Serbia and a final fixture in Greece. After the summer break, the German side will look to translate the intensified approach into results on the international stage.
