2026 FIFA WC: Germany Lose Schlotterbeck For Remainder After Ankle Ligament Injury
FIFA World Cup: Germany have suffered a major setback in their FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign after central defender Nico Schlotterbeck was ruled out for the remainder of the tournament with an ankle ligament injury.
The Borussia Dortmund defender picked up the injury during Germany's 2-1 Group E win over the Ivory Coast on Saturday. He had to leave the game at half-time, and Antonio Rudiger took his place. Scans the following day confirmed a torn ligament in his left ankle.
“Schlotterbeck suffered an injury to the medial collateral ligament in his left ankle and will be out for several months. The defender of German runners-up Borussia Dortmund will stay with the team in the USA for now,” Germany said in a statement on Monday.
