Many prominent faces didn’t miss the exciting Wimbledon final. In addition to Chancellor Friedrich Merz, a DFB star also appeared in London.

London – It was an exciting Wimbledon final in which Alexander Zverev had to accept his fourth Grand Slam final defeat. After an initially very even game, Jannik Sinner finally prevailed after four sets. Numerous celebrities in the audience also watched the spectacle. Whether the Royal Family or Chancellor Friedrich Merz – and Serge Gnabry was also there in London.

The organizers of the traditional tournament, the player himself and his club recorded the visit of the star from FC Bayern in a joint post Instagram firmly. His plan may have been completely different a few weeks ago: the semi-finals of the World Cup will be played on Tuesday. However, without DFB involvement and also without Serge Gnabry.

Gnabry missed the 2026 World Cup due to an injury

The offensive player missed the tournament due to an adductor injury, which he is still suffering from. However, a return to the pitch is expected soon. Coach Vincent Kompany expects his men to start training for the Bundesliga record champions and reigning double winners on July 20th.

Gnabry, who celebrates his 31st birthday on July 14th, is finally hoping for an injury-free season after bitterly missing the World Cup. It would almost feel like a novelty for him, as Gnabry had repeatedly struggled with minor and major injuries in recent years. It’s all the more impressive how he repeatedly fought his way into the starting lineup for both the club and the national team.

The visit to the Grand Slam final in Wimbledon will have been a welcome change from his own situation and that surrounding the German national team for the offensive player. First tennis in London, then a birthday and then hopefully a return to old strength on the football field. (phm)
