Likely backup for Germany
Undav is set to serve as a backup forward option for Germany at the 2026 World Cup.
Analysis: Undav is with Germany heading into the World Cup, as the 27-year-old joins the team as one of their forwards, likely to serve as a backup with Nick Woltemade behind Kai Havertz. He has earned his role on the team after three straight seasons of excellence with Stuttgart, recording 46 goals and 18 assists in 86 league appearances (68 starts), with 19 goals and six assists in 29 appearances during the 2025/26 season. That said, he will likely be more of a rotational option for Germany, with most of his time coming from the bench. However, as the group stages move on and Germany moves closer to advancing, he could earn a start for some rotation in the new expanded format.
Assists Saturday
Undav assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and four chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Analysis: Undav had a down year in 2024/25, but this season he was back to his brilliant best. He scored 19 goals and added six assists in the Bundesliga, tacking on nine more goal contributions in the Europa League. The forward has been brilliant throughout the campaign and is poised to be the talisman for Stuttgart if he remains at the club.
