Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann has extended his contract with the national team for another two years, keeping him in charge of the squad through the 2026 World Cup. This decision means that Nagelsmann will not be returning to Bayern Munich, as the club is currently searching for a new coach following their parting ways with Thomas Tuchel. Despite being a reported favorite to take over at Bayern, Nagelsmann expressed that he was committed to staying with Germany, citing it as an honor to work with the country’s top players.
The German soccer federation announced that its supervisory board and shareholders unanimously agreed to retain Nagelsmann as the national team coach after Euro 2024, which will be held in Germany. Federation president Bernd Neuendorf highlighted Nagelsmann’s value as a coach and noted that he is highly sought after by many top clubs in Europe. With Bayern failing to win the title for the first time since 2012, Nagelsmann’s commitment to the national team signifies his dedication to the role and his passion for working with top talent.
