Sommer played 94 matches for his country since his debut in 2012. He helped the Swiss team reach the quarter-finals of the European Championship last month before losing to the runner-up, England, in a penalty shootout. Sommer also represented Switzerland in the European Championships in 2016 and 2020, as well as the World Cup in 2018 and 2022. He joined Inter Milan last year from Bayern Munich. Sommer stated on his Instagram account: "After careful consideration, I have decided to end my career as a goalkeeper for the Swiss national team. With the conclusion of another wonderful journey in the European Championship in our neighbor Germany, where I spent unforgettable years in the Bundesliga, it is now time for me to say goodbye."
