German press reports revealed that Jurgen Klopp may take over as coach of the German national team, succeeding Julian Nagelsmann, but with very careful arrangements.
The German coach announced that he will leave Liverpool at the end of the current season, and will take a year off, after which he will decide whether to continue coaching or retire.
According to recent reports, the German Football Association wants to enter the 2026 World Cup and its coach is Jurgen Klopp, and the view of the current Reds coach is that he is the only one capable of turning around German football.
The initial plan is to disengage from Julian Nagelsmann after Euro 2024, with assistant coach Sandro Wagner appointed as interim coach for a year.
Starting in the summer of 2025, when the vacation announced by Klopp ends, he will be contracted to take over the training of the “Manschaft” and become the first man in the North American World Cup.
The German Football Association’s sporting director, Andreas Rettig, denied the matter in official statements and said that Nagelsmann may remain in his position after the Euro if he succeeds in achieving positive results.
However, German sources insist that the basic plan is to contract with Klopp, and the position of the coach himself remains unknown, especially since, as soon as his return is announced, he will receive many offers from the top clubs in Europe.
