Julian Nagelsmann has resigned as Germany’s head coach following a stunning World Cup exit, clearing the path for the German Football Association to initiate talks with top target Jurgen Klopp.

The German Football Association (DFB) has entered crisis talks after head coach Julian Nagelsmann officially resigned following the country’s shocking Round of 32 elimination by Paraguay.

Reports from Bild and Sky Germany confirm the 38-year-old stepped down today after accepting a seven-million-euro severance package, cutting short a contract originally intended to run until the 2028 European Championship.

Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has immediately emerged as the primary candidate to succeed Nagelsmann.

Klopp, currently serving as Red Bull’s Global Head of Football, reportedly possesses a specialized exit clause in his contract that allows him to vacate his corporate position specifically for the German national team job, making him the DFB’s dream choice.
