Jurgen Klopp holds talks with DFB about Germany manager position
Summary

Jurgen Klopp is set to hold discussions with the German Football Association (DFB) regarding the vacant national team manager role. This vacancy arose after Julian Nagelsmann resigned following Germany's unexpected exit from the FIFA World Cup 2026, where they lost to Paraguay in a penalty shootout. Klopp confirmed the DFB's approach in an interview and expressed his interest in the position despite currently being Head of Global Soccer for Red Bull GmbH. He stated that he does not expect Red Bull to obstruct his potential move. Discussions are expected to take place in New York next week.
