The full picture
Niclas Füllkrug is expected to be included in Germany's squad for their upcoming Nations League games, according to a report from Get German Football News citing Kicker. The games are scheduled against Serbia on November 13th and the Netherlands on November 16th. Füllkrug has regained his form since returning to Werder Bremen this summer. He has scored nine goals in eight Bundesliga matches.
Füllkrug's resurgence at Werder Bremen is a significant improvement from his time at Borussia Dortmund, West Ham United, and AC Milan, where he struggled to get regular playing time. The 33-year-old forward had left Bremen in 2023. His form at Bremen earned him a spot in Germany's 2022 World Cup team.
Füllkrug's current performance makes him the top scorer in the Bundesliga. His return to Bremen has seen him on course for his best goalscoring season since 2022/23, when he scored well enough to earn a move to Dortmund.

Source context
Niclas Füllkrug is expected to be announced as part of Germany’s squad for their upcoming Nations League games this month, according to reports in Kicker. Since returning to Werder Bremen this summer, the forward has regained his form, which led to his inclusion in Germany’s 2022 World Cup team. So far this season, Füllkrug has scored nine goals in eight Bundesliga matches and is the league’s top scorer as things stand. Since leaving Bremen in 2023, the now 33-year-old has played for Borussia Dortmund, West Ham United, and AC Milan (on loan). However, during these spells, the German never quite managed to get regular playing time and show the talent he once showed for Bremen.
