"The first spot is the center back pairing. Bayern Munich's Jonathan Tah and Borussia Dortmund's Nico Schlotterbeck have been starting for the national team in their most recent games, but the return of Real Madrid's Antonio Rüdiger might change things up."
"One of the questions is who will join Bayern's Jamal Musiala and Liverpool's Florian Wirtz in the trident behind the striker, assuming coach Julian Nagelsmann plays a 4-2-3-1 formation."
"For some reason, Arsenal's Kai Havertz is reportedly in pole position for the role, despite the fact that he has rarely, if ever, had a good game for the national team as a No. 9."
"Deniz Undav is the final choice for the role, although his recent record for VfB Stuttgart should elevate his chances - no other player in the Bundesliga has scored more goals than him this season."
Germany's starting eleven for the World Cup is close to being finalized, with three positions still in question. The center back pairing is uncertain, with Jonathan Tah and Nico Schlotterbeck competing against the returning Antonio Rüdiger. In attack, Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sané are vying for a spot alongside Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz. The striker position is a three-way battle, with Kai Havertz, Nick Woltemade, and Deniz Undav all in contention, though Havertz's recent form raises concerns.
