FIFA World Cup: Germany have suffered a major blow ahead of the FIFA World Cup after teenage attacking midfielder Lennart Karl was ruled out of the tournament with a thigh injury sustained during training in the United States, coach Julian Nagelsmann confirmed on Saturday.

The 18-year-old suffered a muscle tear in his left thigh during a training session in Chicago on Friday. He was taken to the hospital afterward. Karl will be replaced on Germany's World Cup squad by Assan Ouedraogo.

Nagelsmann expressed his disappointment over losing one of Germany's brightest young talents just before the tournament.
