Musiala, who has dual nationality, has opted to play senior football for Germany despite appearing for England unders last November. The year-old has broken into the Bayern squad this season and became the club's youngest Champions League goal-scorer in last month's last 16, first leg win at Lazio. Wirtz, 17, has also impressed for Leverkusen and the pair are set to be called up to the senior Germany squad for the first time.
After 15 years as head coach of Germany, Loew will step down after this summer's European Championship. Despite the impressive form of Thomas Mueller, Loew ruled out recalling the Bayern Munich star or Dortmund defender Mats Hummels for the this month's internationals.
Loew has been under increasing pressure to reverse his decision to end the international careers of Mueller, Hummels and fellow World Cup winner Jerome Boateng since Germany were thrashed by Spain last November.
