German national team head coach Julian Nagelsmann has made it clear that he will not change his starting lineup for the upcoming match against Ivory Coast, confirming that Leroy Sané will keep his position as right winger. In a recent statement, Nagelsmann praised Sané's training performance, stating, "He has trained well. I’m not someone that can be swayed by public opinion. I don’t see why I should drop him." This decision comes as Germany prepares for a crucial match in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Nagelsmann highlighted the unpredictability of the Ivory Coast team, noting their strengths on the wings and their disciplined pressing game. He expressed confidence in his squad's ability to counter these strengths and emphasized the team's goal to secure a victory. "We want to win, that’s the goal. There’s no real reason for me to change anything about the lineup," he added.

The match against Ivory Coast is anticipated to be a challenging test for Germany, as they aim to showcase their skills on the world stage. With Sané's inclusion, the team hopes to leverage his speed and creativity to break down the opposition's defense. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how the match unfolds, as Germany looks to solidify their position in the tournament.
