FRANKFURT, Germany (Reuters) - Germany will unusually feature two forwards in their friendly international against Peru on Saturday, coach Hansi Flick said on Friday as he looks to build a battle-worthy team for next year's Euro 2024.

The Germans have for years opted to play either without an out-an-out striker since their 2014 World Cup victory and the retirement of Miroslav Klose, or deploy just one, many times a false nine.
