Two star strikers come to Luxembourg
While Luc Holtz will only announce his contingent for the test games against Sweden (March 22nd in the Stade de Luxembourg) and Switzerland (March 25th in St. Gallen) on Thursday at 11 a.m., the first FLF opponent already presented his squad on Wednesday. Jon Dahl Tomasson nominated some talents, but also established players.
The Luxembourg audience can particularly look forward to goalkeeper Viktor Gyökeres. According to « Transfermarkt.de », the 26-year-old has a market value of 75 million euros and could leave Sporting in summer. Gyökeres already scored 27 goals in 24 games in the Portuguese Oberhaus this season.

In addition to him, Alexander Isak could also pose problems with the FLF defense. The striker, whose market value is also 75 million euros, is under contract with Newcastle United in the Premier League. Tottenhams Dejan Kulusevski was not nominated due to injury. « We will have the opportunity to test some new players, » explained coach Tomasson. Three days after the duel with Luxembourg, Sweden meets at home on Northern Ireland.
