Philipp Treu and Derry Scherhant have credited their club’s unique "club culture" at SC Freiburg for their advancements to the German national team. Speaking at a recent DFB press conference in Herzogenaurach, the two Freiburg players emphasized the significance of Freiburg's supportive environment and strong sense of community in their development under manager Julian Schuster.
Treu and Scherhant were among four Freiburg players to receive their first senior Germany call-ups in September, alongside Max Rosenfelder and Yannik Engelhardt. Both players have since made their senior international debuts and remain in Jürgen Klopp's squad for upcoming Nations League fixtures against Serbia and the Netherlands.
Treu and Scherhant highlight Freiburg's strong values instilled through routines such as shared meals and punctuality, as well as the club's ban on mobile phones during team activities, which encourages communication and personal connections among players. Both players expressed their appreciation for Freiburg's supportive atmosphere, noting that it has allowed them to develop without undue pressure, unlike other clubs where recent setbacks might lead to added stress.
Their experiences with Freiburg have been instrumental in their success, both domestically and internationally.
