Liverpool midfielder Emre Can has been called up for Germany's Euro Qualifiers against Poland and Scotland next month.
Coach Joachim Low said Can has developed so well at Anfield that he wants to give him a chance to impress in the full German squad.
The 21-year-old, who played for Germany at every level except the full side, joined Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen last year.
"Emre had a good development at Liverpool and is a versatile player. We like his presence on the pitch and his dynamism," Loew said. "Now we want to get to know him a bit better."
Germany take on Poland in Frankfurt on September 4 before travelling to Glasgow to face Scotland three days later - a game you can see live on Sky Sports.
The World Cup winners are second in their Group D on 13 points from six matches, one point behind Poland, who beat them 2-0 in October last year. Scotland are third on 11.
Low also recalled defender Matthias Ginter and Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
Ginter, a World Cup winner last year, had not played for Germany since October 2014, struggling since his move to Borussia Dortmund.
"Matthias had a difficult year at Dortmund but he accepted the challenge and he is benefiting from that attitude. His form is now improving and his recent performances have been outstanding.
"It is in our own hands to take over the top of the group table and meet the high expectations. Our aim can only be to win both matches and I expect we will do that.
"We dropped some points at the start of this qualification. We know what's at stake and now we want to move up a gear."
