Pascal Gross has kept his place in the Germany squad for two friendlies in the United States during the forthcoming international window.

The Albion midfielder returned after injury on Thursday to score our first goal in the 2-2 draw against Marseille in the Europa League.

Gross made his Germany debut in a friendly against Japan last month and got more minutes a few days later in a 2-1 victory over France.

He will hope to get further game time in fixtures against the United States in Hartford on 14 October and Mexico in Philadelphia three days later as the hosts continue their preparations for next summer's Euros, which they will be hosting.

It will be new coach Julian Nagelsmann's first games in charge after he was appointed last month.
