Injured Emre Can won't play for Germany against Spain - Joachim Low

Germany boss Joachim Low confirmed that Emre Can will not play in the team's friendly against Spain on Friday.

Can, 24, left Germany training early on Wednesday with a back problem, but a press officer called it merely a precautionary measure. He was also substituted in Liverpool's 5-0 win against Watford last weekend.

Low told reporters: "Emre Can will not be in the squad tomorrow because of the back problem he brought with him from Liverpool.

"He tried to train yesterday but broke it off because it was pinching a bit.

"Maybe Saturday he can return to training and hopefully play a role against Brazil [on Tuesday]."
