Official: Nico Schlotterbeck ruled out of the 2026 World Cup

Second round of the World Cup, despite Germany's victory, left a bitter aftertaste for Nagelsmann's squad.

Details: Germany has officially announced that Borussia Dortmund and national team defender, 26-year-old Nico Schlotterbeck, has ended his World Cup campaign prematurely. The ligament strain turned out to be serious, and the defender will need more time to recover.

Nevertheless, the player will stay in the USA and spend time with the team, providing moral support. As a reminder, Schlotterbeck was substituted at halftime in the match against Ivory Coast, which Germany won 2-1.
