On 7 October 2015, Holtmann made his debut for the German national U-20 team in a match against Turkey. [15]

Philippines

Holtmann decided to suit up for the Philippines around 2016, but wanted to become a regular player in the Bundesliga first. [14]

In March 2021, during an interview, Holtmann said that he was applying for dual citizenship so he would be able to play for the Philippines in their remaining matches in the second round of 2022 FIFA World Cup Asian qualifiers that would be held in China. [16] Two months later in May, he was called up by the Philippines for 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification matches against China, Guam and the Maldives. [17] However, Holtmann was unable to make his Philippines debut in the said tournaments due to "a lack of documents." [18]

Holtmann was included in the 25-man squad of the Philippines for 2022 FAS Tri-Nations Series. [19] However, he was not able to play as he contracted COVID-19 while preparing to fly out to Singapore. [20] In June, however, Holtmann finally got called up to the Philippines squad for the Asian Cup Qualifiers under coach Thomas Dooley. [21] Holtmann made his debut for the Philippines in a match against Mongolia in the third round of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers, featuring in the starting lineup. He would go on to score his first goal for the Philippines and the only goal of the game in the 93rd minute to win the match, 1–0. [22] [23] [24]
