19 May 2026
Giulia Gwinn will miss Germany’s decisive World Cup qualifying matches after it was confirmed she needs left shoulder surgery. The Bayern Munich defender dislocated her shoulder during Germany’s qualifier against Austria in April.
The DFB confirmed Gwinn will miss the matches against Norway and Slovenia in June. Germany can secure early qualification for the 2027 World Cup against Norway, but must do so without their captain.
