Maximilian Beier sharpens Levelling with March 2024 Germany call-up

Maximilian Beier’s levelling move came in March 2024, when he was first called up to Germany’s senior side. By June, he had made his debut against Ukraine and then moved to Borussia Dortmund for the 2024/25 season.

Maximilian Beier and Germany

The call came when he was 21 years old. Beier said he was “ziemlich nervös” and added: “Als ich den Namen auf dem Display gesehen hab, da hat es bei mir angefangen zu pochen”.

He was already through Germany’s U17, U20 and U21 teams before that step. The senior call-up moved him from prospect to player in the national setup in a single season, with UEFA Euro 2024 and WM 2026 both listed in his squad history.

TSG Hoffenheim in the rise

Beier’s path to that point ran through TSG Hoffenheim. He joined in the 2018/19 season, made his Bundesliga debut on the 21st matchday at 17 years, 3 months and 23 days old, and later spent a two-year loan at Hannover 96 before returning to Hoffenheim in 2023.

That return mattered because it put him back in front of Julian Nagelsmann in the same year he pushed into the senior Germany picture. For a forward, that sequence usually means a sharper evaluation at both club and international level: one performance cycle, two decision-makers, and a much smaller margin for error.

Borussia Dortmund for the 2024/25 season

His Dortmund move followed the debut and completed the next step in the climb. The transfer gave him a new club platform after the March call-up and June appearance, with the senior national-team place now tied to how quickly he settles at Borussia Dortmund.

Beier has also kept much of his private life out of sight. He said he spent the winter break at home with his parents and sister, was cooked for by his mother, and described that time as “Es ist eigentlich das Beste, was es gibt.”

That is the useful detail around the player behind the rise. Although Maximilian Beier has become a Germany senior international and Borussia Dortmund player, the source says there is no current information on whether he is still in the relationship he mentioned in 2021.
