The 4-time World Cup winners once again enter a tournament as potential favourites with genuine and world-class talent in their squad.
From youngsters to experienced campaigners, Germany has it all to fire off their desire and dream of becoming 5-time champions.
Musiala is a player to watch out for given the outstanding season he is currently having for Bayern and can do the same for country.
There is immense respect for the German team at the World Stage and this is another chance for them to ensure success touches their feet.

Die Mannschaft under Flick did not have the best of times recently during the Nations League, where they finished 3rd.
But come the World Cup and we see them firing on all cylinders in order to achieve the crown once again. Germany is expected to qualify for the knockouts with the team at their disposal.
It’s their experience at the World Stage level, which gives them the advantage to progress far into the tournament.
