Julian Nagelsmann resigns as Germany head coach following Germany’s disappointing World Cup campaign, according to multiple reports. Germany fail to progress from the group stage at the previous two tournaments and are eliminated again, this time in the round of 32 after losing to Paraguay on penalties. Following the exit, Germany’s football federation is reported to move quickly to appoint a new coach for upcoming tournaments. Several outlets say Germany’s officials seek talks with former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp, who is widely viewed as a leading candidate to take over. BBC and other reports describe Klopp as “ready” to replace Nagelsmann, and say the German FA intends to hold discussions with him. Sky Sports and others report Klopp’s availability and willingness to assume the role. Reports also indicate Nagelsmann met with federation figures in Frankfurt after the tournament and that he resigns after internal discussions about whether he should remain in charge. Coverage also notes Nagelsmann’s employment conditions, including severance figures mentioned in some reports. Overall, the story centers on the coaching change after Germany’s World Cup elimination and the federation’s focus on talks with Klopp as the next manager.
