Germany's early elimination from the 2026 World Cup has brought immediate changes to the "Pants" bench. The German Football Association has officially announced the departure of Julian Nagelsmann from the national team, ending his collaboration after the failure in the round of 16.
The 38-year-old coach took responsibility for the disappointing result and said the national team needed a fresh start. In his farewell message, Nagelsmann thanked the players, staff and fans for their support during his time in charge.
Meanwhile, attention is focused on his successor. The most talked-about name is that of Jürgen Klopp. According to German media, the former Liverpool coach has given signals that he is ready to take over the national team if the Federation presents him with an official offer.
Klopp, who currently holds the position of global head of football at Red Bull, reportedly has a clause in his contract that allows him to leave in the event of an offer from the German national team.
It now remains to be seen whether the German Football Federation will reach an agreement with one of the most successful coaches of recent years, to entrust him with the mission of returning Germany to the top of world football.
