La Fiorita Montegiardino Overview

Germany legends Lothar Matthaus and Roman Weidenfeller have both publicly endorsed Julian Nagelsmann's shock decision to restore Manuel Neuer as the nation’s primary goalkeeper for the 2026 World Cup. The Bayern Munich veteran has sensationally stepped out of international retirement to lead Die Mannschaft in North America, displacing Hoffenheim’s Oliver Baumann in the process.

The debate over Joshua Kimmich's position in the German national team has been reignited by Uli Hoeneß. He has criticised national team manager Julian Nagelsmann.

Another 2014 World Cup winner is hanging up his boots: Lukas Podolski will bring down the curtain on his professional career this summer.

Karim Adeyemi will not feature at the World Cup, a predictable decision given that the 24-year-old has clocked less than 600 minutes for BVB this calendar year. Will the forward now remain in Dortmund?
