Which 26 players has Hansi Flick picked for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar?
Germany will be looking to make amends for their performances at the 2018 World Cup when they travel to Qatar for this year's edition of the tournament as they surprisingly finished bottom of the group stage last time around in Russia.
That was then followed up with another underwhelming display at Euro 2020, where England proved to be too strong in the round of 16.
That saw Hansi Flick replace Joachim Low at the helm, with the former Bayern Munich boss desperate to make an impact at his first major tournament as the main man.
The four-time World Cup champions have not been handed an easy draw, though, as they will have to deal with the likes of 2010 champions Spain, Asian powerhouse Japan and Concacaf representative Costa Rica in Group E.

Flick has plenty of options in midfield, both when it comes to defensive-minded players and more creative playmakers.
Joshua Kimmich is a certainty in midfield and the likes of Ilkay Gundogan, Leon Goretzka and Julian Brandt are also set to compete for starting berths.
Promising youngster Jamal Musiala will add some flair and creativity, while Mario Gotze has returned to the Germany fold after a five-year absence, with the man who scored their winner in the 2014 World Cup final now playing for Eintracht Frankfurt.

Germany have plenty of talent to pick from up top as well.
Chelsea's Kai Havertz and Bayern Munich duo Thomas Muller and Serge Gnabry have been called up.
Leroy Sane endured a bit of a scare after picking up a muscular problem, but returned to match action in Bayern's 3-2 win over Hertha and will board the flight to Qatar.
Then there's an up-and-coming talent like Karim Adeyemi and Borussia Dortmund's 17-year-old wonderkid Youssoufa Moukoko, who will hope to land his first senior cap at the World Cup.
