Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart confirm UEFA Champions League squads

Clubs can name an A list of up to 25 players, eight of whom must be 'locally trained'. Of those eight, a maximum of four can have spent at least three seasons under contract at another German club between the ages of 15 and 21, while the remainder must have spent those seasons with their current club.

There is also a B list for players born after 1 January 2005. As such, Lennart Karl has been named on that list rather than the A list and will still be eligible to compete for Bayern this term. The same applies to Antonio Nusa and Assan Ouédraogo at Leipzig.

The Bavarians will kick off their continental campaign on Thursday when they host Bodø/Glimt, while RB Leipzig travel to Como. Dortmund are in action against Villarreal on Tuesday, with Stuttgart facing Viking on Wednesday.
