Plays for German U-17s so 100% wants to play for Germany. He'll opt for us when he gives up the hope of playing for the German senior team.

One day my hope is to field a whole team of German and Swiss rejects.

Can you really be a traitor if you represent the country you were born and raised in?

Ahh, the age old question that has been debated to death on the Xtratime forums.

Traitor no, however there are factors that need considering on representation. I always looked at migration as a journey therefore I tend to distance myself from the "American birth right" view as it's different as America has always been looked as the holy grail of personal identity. A birthplace is just that, a place that you were born. A hospital doesn't give you identity. Your parents do.
But if a person completely identifies with his birthplace or adopted place rather than his ancestral place and for whatever reason his parents identity is not installed in him as strongly as the society surrounding him than it's immoral to judge imo. Every journey ends

:ckemi: Behrami, Xhamaili and Xhaka are better than Kaçe in that lineup. Btw we don't speak about impossible what if's now, we just have to get upcoming youth diaspora players to renew the rooster from time to time.
