Germany’s Nico Schlotterbeck will miss the rest of the 2026 World Cup due to an injury sustained in the comeback 2–1 win over Côte d’Ivoire on Saturday.
The 26-year-old began the tournament as a starter for Julian Nagelsmann’s side and was in the XI for both of Germany’s first two matches in Group E. However, he was replaced at half time in the clash with Côte d'Ivoire after going over on his ankle early into the game.
