At the end of a picture book week Lukas Mecca remained with Cool. No exuberant joy, no cheeky sayings — before he will come to the circle of the national team for the first time this Monday, the striker of the VFL Wolfsburg was completely relaxed.
I was a bit surprised, but also try to do my thing, said Mecca before his premiere at Germany s best footballers. I ve learned earlier that I do not hang my emotions too high and not too low. I try to stay on the ground.
Mecca would have a reason to perform a researcher. Gate against Leverkusen, Gate against Salzburg, Gate against Augsburg — better the past few days could not have walked for the 22-year-olds.
Especially since there was just that call, with whom he had not expected. National coach Hans Flick was at the other end of the management and informed Mecca about his first nomination for the national team. I did not really expect that, that was a bit of a shock, said Mecca, but the joy came when I told my parents who were very happy.

in Wolfsburg against Liechtenstein
Ironically, in Wolfsburg, the offensive player will now be part of the DFB eleven, which then plays against Liechtenstein on Thursday in Volkswagen Arena. I can just go to the hotel on Monday, do not need to be great, said Mecca about his short way to the DFB squad premiere.
The way to breakthrough in the Bundesliga took a little longer. In 2019, for the first time he moved to the lending base of Manchester City to the VFL Wolfsburg into the Bundesliga, but could not prevail under coach Oliver Glaser yet. About the detour RSC Anderlecht returned the elderly of the two Mecca brothers in the summer for around eight million euros in the VW city. This time not more than young, largely unknown talent on a lending. But as the striker who had previously shot the German U21 national team in June to the European Champion title. In the final against Portugal he succeeded by the winning goal for 1: 0.
Flick: Another game type
He always tries to create spaces. He is a bit different game type than those we currently have, said Flick of the German Press Agency about the newcomer. Of course, Mecca hopes for a few atmospheres, but does not want to make pressure. I m just trying to go well and hope I get my chance.
The new Wolfsburg coach Florian Krefeld has also advised the native Hamburg, not to make too much pressure. Enjoy was the only thing he had given Mecca on the way, Krefeld said after the 1-0 against Augsburg on Saturday.
