“Doing well at Besiktas, I can get back into the Germany side for Euro 2016. I am ready to pass on my experience to the young players in the squad. After all, experienced players must give advice to help the younger elements grow.
“I can’t wait to get started and step on to the field in our stadium. I won’t name a target for how many goals I want to score, as for me what really counts is that the team wins.
“I want to ensure I am ready to get going straight away and I don’t think there will be any problems.”
