Lennart Karl's World Cup hopes jeopardized by injury
German prodigy Lennart Karl may miss the World Cup after picking up an injury in training. The setback occurred in the final session before Germany's preparatory friendly against the United States.
Karl is described as Bayern Munich's wonderkid. He has been highlighted as a German super‑talent.
The injury was recorded during the last training drill for the Germany‑United States match. The injury raises doubts about his World Cup involvement.
If the injury proves severe, Karl could be forced to withdraw from the tournament prematurely. His absence would deprive Germany of the Bayern forward.
Germany's squad loses a potential attacking option with Karl sidelined. The national team must adapt its lineup without the Bayern prospect.
Medical staff will monitor Karl throughout the tournament to decide his fitness. A final decision on his World Cup role is expected before Germany's opening match.
