FC Bayern MünchenABOUT JOSHUA KIMMICH
World Cup pedigree
Joshua Kimmich was Germany's deep midfielder at WC2022 and is the senior leader of the post-2022 cycle. WC2026 is his third tournament; he has captained Germany since 2024.
Role for Germany
Bayern Munich and Germany captain, Kimmich plays a hybrid right-back / defensive-midfielder role depending on personnel and opposition. His set-piece delivery and long-range passing range are among the world's elite.
WC2026 outlook
Limited Golden Boot upside as a defensive player. His real value is in team-specific markets — Germany's clean-sheet odds correlate with his organisational role, and his free-kick prowess makes assist markets interesting in tighter games.
