The German Football Association announced on Thursday morning that Joshua Kimmich will not be available for Friday's World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg.

The Germany captain has suffered an ankle injury that is keeping him out until further notice.

However, the injury doesn't seem to be serious, with the Germany captain expressing hope to return for Monday’s match against Slovakia.

“Unfortunately, this is my workplace for now," Kimmich wrote on Instagram, sharing a photo of himself seated.

“I’m giving everything to be back on the pitch on Monday,” he added.

Monday's World Cup qualifier against Slovakia will be played at Red Bull Arena in Leipzig.
