The Musiala-Wirtz era starts here

Germany had a strong Euro 2024 quarter-final exit. The 2026 cycle is about Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz finally fronting the national team at a World Cup. They sit in Group E with Ivory Coast, Ecuador and Curacao — winnable but with a couple of properly tricky games.

The design

Classic white Adidas home shirt with black contrast and sharp modern geometry. The famous three-stripe sleeve runs in the German flag colours. The crest is the redesigned DFB mark, sitting central. One of the cleanest, most heritage-rich kits in the tournament. Paired with black shorts.

Who to watch

Jamal Musiala the talisman — 22 years old, generational talent. Florian Wirtz running the number 10 role. Antonio Rudiger anchoring the back. Add Joshua Kimmich, Kai Havertz, and Niclas Fullkrug. The spine is very, very strong.

Why you should care

A Germany home kit is a wardrobe essential for any football fan. The 2026 release looks like a modern Trikot classic. The Musiala name shirt will be one of the most popular in Europe.
