Tresoldi nears German U21 scoring record

Nicolò Tresoldi, the 22-year-old Club Brugge striker, is approaching a scoring record for the Germany U21 national team. Currently with 16 goals in 27 appearances, Tresoldi needs two more goals to equal Pierre Littbarski’s record of 18, and three to become the sole record holder.

Tresoldi has an opportunity to reach this milestone during the upcoming international period, starting with a match against the Belgian U21 team in Essen on November 13. Despite his age, Tresoldi remains eligible for the German U21 side through the 2027 European Championship cycle due to specific age-eligibility regulations.

Germany is scheduled to play Belgium on Friday, followed by a match against Croatia in Rijeka on November 17.
