Berlin [Germany], May 21 (ANI): Germany unveiled their FIFA World Cup squad for the 2026 edition on Thursday, with legendary goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, a part of the 2014 edition winning squad, reversing his international retirement taken in 2024.
Germany, who have had a rough run in the FIFA World Cups as of late, with two back-to-back group stages in the 2018 and 2022 editions. While they failed to secure the Euro 2024 title on their home soil, manager Julian Nagelsmann has instilled a new standard into the squad, as per Olympics.com.
The team is largely new-look and looks promising, and is eager to chase their fifth title.
Germany is a part of Group E in the tournament, with debutants Curacao, three-time AFCON winners Cote d'Ivoire and South Americans Ecuador. The four-time champions will start their campaign in Houston against Curacao on June 14.
