• Nick Woltemade took part in the final session in Herzogenaurach after a flu-like infection had delayed his arrival and limited him to individual work.
• Oliver Baumann declared himself fit after nausea earlier in the week and is set to start in goal in Marc-André ter Stegen’s injury absence.
• The German FA has not named a direct replacement for Woltemade after his late return to the squad.
• Jamie Leweling continued to train individually with adductor issues and is expected to miss the Luxembourg match, with Kevin Schade drafted in as cover.
• Germany face Luxembourg on Friday in Sinsheim before visiting Northern Ireland on Monday, trailing Group A leaders Slovakia by three points with only the winner qualifying directly for 2026.
