This is a list of the players who played for Germany national football team and who were born outside the current borders of Germany. This list includes former West Germany national football team players. It also includes players born in presently non-German territories even if they were controlled by Germany when they were born regardless of the means by which those lands had come under German administration - this list therefore includes players born in the historical eastern territories of Germany, militarily-occupied territories, territories annexed by the Nazis and German overseas colonies. However, it does not include players who played only for the former East Germany or Saarland national football teams, nor does it include any Germany/West Germany international footballers born in East Germany, Saarland or West Berlin prior to those lands' absorption by the modern Federal Republic of Germany.
