Jurgen Klopp is the new manager of Germany.
The former Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool boss returning to management.
Official confirmation coming on Friday (24 July 2026) morning that Jurgen Klopp has agreed to take the Germany job.
Jurgen Nagelsmann offered his resignation early this month.
That followed a really poor 2026 World Cup campaign for Germany. They hammered Curacao 7-1 in their opening group match but looked poor in the following three games. Germany never looked convincing and against a limited Paraguay side in their last 32 clash, deservedly going out on penalties.
The German football association (DFB) accepted Nagelsmann’s resignation and now Jurgen Klopp his replacement.
On leaving the post, Julian Nagelsmann explained his departure: “My top priority has always been the team’s success…After such a bitter disappointment, they deserve the chance for a fresh start. A special thank you also goes to the fans. You carried us, you trusted us, you gave us energy, even during difficult times. It truly pains me that we disappointed you and couldn’t give you any more memorable nights of football at this World Cup. You deserved so much more!”
Newcastle United duo Nick Woltemade and Malcik Thiaw now with Jurgen Klopp as their new international boss. I can’t imagine either of them will be too upset about the change, neither got a start at the World Cup under Nagelsmann, Thiaw a couple of sub appearances and Big Nick just the one late chance off the bench in the Paraguay match.
