Germany's national team faces a significant transition with the retirement of four key players, impacting both on-field dynamics and team leadership as they prepare for future competitions.
The four players combined for 451 appearances over a decade, marking a successful era that includes a 2014 World Cup victory, but recent tournament performances have been disappointing.
