"Following his knee injury in March which put his World Cup chances in doubt, Felix Nmecha has won his race against time and is back to full fitness. Julian Nagelsmann has informed the midfielder that he will be included in the World Cup squad."
"Nmecha figures to be in competition for a starting spot because Germany's midfield is far from settled. With Joshua Kimmich likely to be at right-back, Nmecha could be competing with players like Leon Goretzka, Aleksandar Pavlović, and others for playing time or even a starting role."
"It should be noted that nothing has been released by the German national team as of yet, so all of this could change and should be considered unofficial."
