Bayern player collects European Championship pass from RTL icon

RTL "legend" hands over European Championship ticket to Bayern player

Joshua Kimmich is a well-known football player, but he also enjoys watching the television show "Gute Zeiten, Schlechte Zeiten" on RTL in his free time. So, he must be thrilled that a famous face from the series has announced his nomination for the European Championship.

National coach Julian Nagelsmann has created quite a bit of excitement by revealing his plans for the European Championship squad. The whole country is eagerly anticipating the tournament, and ntv.de provides a comprehensive list of all the players who have been chosen. They've even documented how these nominations are shared with the public.

Joshua Kimmich: Joshua Kimmich is a huge fan of "Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten" on RTL. It's fitting, then, that Wolfgang Bahro, who has played Hans-Joachim "Jo" Gerner on the show since its very beginning, was the one to announce his nomination for the European Football Championship. Bahro (aka Gerner) visited the set of the series in Babelsberg and revealed that he had "the honor of naming another national player who will be participating in the European Championships." Kimmich and Bahro had met briefly before - they met at a promotional shoot for the DFB selection in November 2017. Kimmich asked for a photo with the actor, which he posted on his Instagram with the caption "Legend."

Pascal Groß: Pascal Groß is another player who was nominated for the European Championship. Günther Jauch, host of the show "Einer gegen Alle," asked the audience to guess which player had been chosen. He joked that this question was worth "five euros." The answer was obvious, Jauch said, "Guys, that's a five-euro question!" Groß, at 32, is a midfielder for Brighton & Hove Albion who has played five international matches so far. He's been selected as a backup for the central duo of Toni Kroos and Robert Andrich.

Robert Andrich: Robert Andrich got the news about his European Championship nomination in an unconventional way. His nominatation was announced by teammates Toni Kroos and his brother, Felix, in the podcast "Einfach mal Luppen." Kroos praised Andrich's outstanding performance with Bayer Leverkusen and said he hoped that Andrich would continue playing well in the tournament.

Leroy Sané: Leroy Sané is one player that Nagelsmann has high hopes for during the tournament. He received his nomination via Frankfurt's Schirn Kunsthalle, though it's unclear whether he'll start as a member of the attacking trio with Florian Wirtz, İlkay Gündoğan, and Jamal Musiala or if he'll be a wild card in case one of those players gets injured.

Maximilian Mittelstädt: Mittelstädt is being sent to the European Championship without any fanfare. His nomination was announced by singer Peter Schilling, whose song "Major Tom" has become a popular goal anthem. Middleastadt has played two international matches, but he's a regular starter.

Kai Havertz: Havertz's nomination was no real shock, given how well he's been playing in the English Premier League this season. Calcio Berlin announced his inclusion in the squad. He's currently fighting for the league title in England, and it seems like he's also found his place in the German team's starting lineup.

Robin Koch: Robin Koch was confirmed as the fourth central defender. However, he might be the last one on the bench if they end up calling up Waldemar Anton instead. The announcement was made on the YouTube show "World Wide Living Room."

Chris Führich: Chris Führich secured his place in the squad by picking up a bag of bread rolls at the bakery. He's a role player on the left side of the attack and is not anticipated to start, but he can still contribute by providing some much-needed energy.

Niclas Füllkrug: Showcased a radio, toaster, and salt shaker styled after Dortmund, but he dashed any speculations of a surprise nomination from Mats Hummels with a typical Northern "Moin". It wasn't Hummels that was showcased on 1Live and through video from Dortmund as the next Euro Championship player, but the striker who was already confirmed. He's an integral part of the national team.

Manuel Neuer: Needless to say, it had to be him. Doubt never crossed anyone's mind regarding the standing of the long-time DFB captain, regardless of the significant setback in the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid. Chiara the roofer shook a "1" out of a slate on Instagram. Neuer will represent the national team at Euros - no surprises there.

Aleksandar Pavlovic: Frauke Ludowig had a surprise. At the conclusion of her exclusive TV show on Monday, the RTL hostess, suddenly wearing a jersey, turned around - she tossed her hair forward and exhibited "PAVLOVIC" on her back. The young Munich player is the fourth option in defensive midfield and has surpassed Leon Goretzka's performance.

Jonathan Tah: Grandma Lotti was perplexed. "That's you!" exclaimed the 93-year-old when geriatric nurse Rashid Hamid presented her with a cake containing Tah's portrait in a pizza box. After a brief exchange, the elderly woman recommended the man from Leverkusen to shave his beard. He may not do that until Bayer loses another game - could take some time.

Nico Schlotterbeck: Ring! This is Germany's First Television with the European Championship squad. The announcement of the nomination of the Dortmund central defender immediately after the broadcast of a significant fire in Warsaw on Sunday evening sparked speculation. Schlotterbeck is the initial substitute for the usual duo of Antonio Rüdiger and Tah.
