Due to positive coronavirus tests, Germany will be without captain Manuel Neuer and midfielder Leon Goretzka against Hungary and England.
Following the successful outcomes, both Bayern Munich players were segregated, but they have since left the team hotel in Gravenbruch, close to Frankfurt, the German soccer federation reported on Wednesday.
They won't be able to attend the Nations League matches against Hungary on Friday in Leipzig and England on Monday in London.
Jonas Hofmann, a member of the national team, stated that "alarm bells are going off."
Players who interacted with Goretzka and Neuer had to submit to daily COVID-19 tests.
Although Marc-André ter Stegen of Barcelona has been called up to replace Neuer, Germany coach Hansi Flick is likely to start him against Hungary. Later, to fill Goretzka's absence, he also called up Wolfsburg midfielder Maximilian Arnold.
On Sunday, the entire Bayern team attended the Oktoberfest beer festival, including Goretzka and Neuer. All the German players were due to be tested before they joined the squad on Monday.
