Undisputed starter for Austria
Laimer has been named in Austria's World Cup squad and is expected to be one of the first names on coach Ralf Rangnick's teamsheet throughout the competition.
Analysis: Laimer ended a remarkable season with Bayern Munich, contributing three goals and nine assists across 29 Bundesliga appearances while winning both the Bundesliga title and the DFB Pokal in what has been the most decorated campaign of his career. The Austrian brings an extraordinary combination of pressing intensity, defensive work rate and attacking contribution from right-back or midfield that makes him one of the most complete and tireless players in the tournament. Laimer heads into the World Cup as one of Austria's most important players and a key figure in coach Rangnick's high-energy pressing system that has carried the nation to their first World Cup in 28 years.
Plays in cup final
Laimer (back) was part of Bayern's starting lineup in the Pokal finale against Stuttgart on Saturday.
Analysis: Laimer has avoided an injury scare and should be fully fit to appear for Austria in the World Cup. He was active as a full-back on both sides during the season, finishing with three goals and 12 assists over 46 appearances (36 starts) across all competitions. Given his solid performance at the club level, he should have reasonable chances of starting for his national team in the summer competition.
