Goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger will keep playing for Germany's national team. She aims for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil.
After the Nations League finals, national coach Christian Wück can plan with Ann-Katrin Berger as the top goalkeeper. The 35-year-old from Gotham FC has chosen to stay with the national team.
The next big event is the World Cup in 2027 in Brazil. Berger told coach Wück and goalkeeper coach Michael Fuchs about her plan to stay.
Berger helped Germany win Olympic bronze in 2024 in France. She made key penalty saves. She also did well in the European Championship in Switzerland, especially in the quarter-finals against France.
She will be almost 37 at the World Cup, but her experience helps a lot. She had doubts before because of travel from the USA to Europe. She is under contract with Gotham FC until 2026.
Berger became the main goalkeeper later in her career. Former coach Horst Hrubesch helped her get there. She has played 29 matches for Germany. She played for clubs like Turbine Potsdam, Paris Saint-Germain, Birmingham City, and Chelsea.
