Interesting but no matter, he'll get another chance to show the German coach what his game is all about.

Interesting that they didn't detail what "club related matters" means. Normally, since they are not even in preseason training and players are being loaned to Euro clubs, there would not be a scheduling conflict with the club unless they have friendlies scheduled -- but you wouldn't keep somebody from the national team for that. Hmmm..... none the less you are right that he will get another chance. Frankly, I would like to see Omar go to Europe but his situ in LA is good enough that he doesn't have to do it to get on Jurgen's radar screen.
