Chelsea star retires from the national team

The 2023 World Cup was not a fun story for Leupolz and Germany, who for the first time in history failed to advance from the group stage.

But she has many other fond memories to look back on. She took part in winning both European Championship gold in 2013 and Olympic gold in 2016. In total, there were 79 A national matches and 13 goals during a national team career that spanned ten years.

“Now is the time to focus fully on Chelsea,” says Melanie Leupolz to the association’s website.
