After scoring three goals in two substitute appearances – including a brace in Germany’s 2-1 win over Côte d’Ivoire – Deniz Undav is set to make his first start at the World Cup against Ecuador on Thursday.

This is reported by Bild, who claims that head coach Julian Nagelsmann made the decision after Wednesday’s final training session ahead of the game.

Undav is expected to start as a No. 10, coming in at the expense of Jamal Musiala.

Nick Woltemade, who has yet to feature at the World Cup, could potentially lead the line in place of Kai Havertz, with the Newcastle United forward expected to come off the bench at the very least.

The match takes place on Thursday at 22:00 CEST, with Germany already guaranteed to finish top of Group E heading into the game.
