Bayern Munich midfielder Thomas Mueller won't make his Germany debut in next week's friendly against Ivory Coast after all.
Germany coach Joachim Loew had called up the 20-year-old Mueller for Wednesday's match in Gelsenkirchen.
However, the German federation says Loew has now agreed that Mueller should instead be in the under-21 squad that faces San Marino in a European Championship qualifying match next Tuesday.
Loew said Thursday that the decision was made "on sporting grounds."
