With Adidas and German national football officially set to break up in 2026, the sports apparel manufacturer will design Germany's last kits for the 2026 World Cup. A new leak of the national teams home kit shows us how Adidas potentially plans to make its exit. The leak, shared to the public by Footy Headlines, shows a kit that utilizes the colors of the German flag as its main component, making it simple and easily identifiable to the German national identity.

RIGA, Latvia -- Germany has added a EuroBasket title to its World Cup crown. Dennis Schroder had the game's final six points, Isaac Bonga scored a team-best 20 points and Germany topped Turkey 88-83 on Sunday in the gold medal game at the European championship. It was Germany's first EuroBasket title since 1993. Franz Wagner scored 18 points and Schroder finished with 16 points and 12 assists for Germany, which finished the tournament 9-0.

Leeds have made a good start to their Premier League return, with four points in their opening three matches. The 5-0 defeat to Arsenal was a blow, but a victory over Everton and draw against Newcastle has elevated the confidence levels at Elland Road after a positive summer transfer window. Among those to join Leeds in the summer was defensive midfielder Anton Stach, who arrived from Bundesliga side TSG Hoffenheim.

And then it's completely normal and human that we were a bit shocked and unsettled," said Raum (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). "We have to learn from these mistakes, grow as a team, stand together more, and show more confidence. We are Germany, a great footballing nation. We have a lot of quality, and we simply have to show that even more and then develop quality through our mentality. We did that well in the second half and deserved to win.

"We all know things didn't go so well (against Slovakia). But I'd rather lose the first one than lose the important ones later. Of course, he (Nagelsmann) is still the right one. We shouldn't throw everything after one game. I'm convinced we'll play better tonight. We should talk more about football in Germany, and not only transfers, transfers, transfers. If we do that then we'll play better," Hoeneß said during an appearance on SPORT1-Doppelpass (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).

"It is healthy to set goals. It is difficult for a team or even an individual to go through life without a goal they are working towards, that is worth fighting for," Nagelsmann said during his pre-match press conference. "I think it is healthy that we all want to win the World Cup. I am 100% convinced that no player would answer differently or they would not need to travel with us," Nagelsmann said.

There are always talks in football, but I don't want to name any names. Max [Eberl] was one of those who brought me to RB Leipzig, and I will always be grateful to him for that. The most important thing was to find a place where I can continue to develop and play my style of football. That's the case with Tottenham," Simons said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).

Rudiger was excluded from Germany's matches in June in response to his outburst in the Copa del Rey final when he received a red card despite being on the bench after appearing to throw something at the referee. As such, Nagelsmann criticised the defender's behaviour, with Rudiger apologising in a recent interview, saying it was "wrong and excessive".

The Arsenal forward has been absent since sustaining a knee injury during the Gunners' 1-0 victory over Manchester United on the opening weekend of the Premier League season. Havertz then missed the 5-0 win over Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium, where Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka both limped off for Mikel Arteta's side. The 26-year-old, who has not played for Germany since their Nations League clash against Bosnia and Herzegovina last November, was also sidelined between February and mid-May with a hamstring tear.
