Reus returns for Germany qualifiers
Marco Reus will return to international action with Germany for the Euro 2016 qualifiers against Republic of Ireland and Georgia.
Germany welcome back Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus for their concluding Euro 2016 qualifiers against Republic of Ireland and Georgia.
A toe injury forced Reus to miss the world champions' previous qualifiers against Poland and Scotland last month, where a pair of victories left Joachim Low's men top of the Group D standings - two points above Poland.
If Germany avoid defeat against Ireland in Dublin on October 8 they will secure a place at next year's finals in France before hosting Georgia in Leipzig three days later.
Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno has been called into the national squad for the first time, winning a spot ahead of Hannover's Ron-Robert Zieler.
Low said: "Our goal is to win the two games against Ireland and Georgia and to qualify as group winners for the European Championship in France.
"I have great confidence in the players. These players are regularly called [upon] with their clubs in the league and at European level, they have a good rhythm."
On Leno's selection, Germany goalkeeping coach Andreas Kopke added: "I have already said that behind Manuel Neuer on the position of the goalkeeper we have several candidates in mind.
