Several managers resign or are fired after 2026 World Cup failures

Multiple national team coaches faced dismissal or resignation following disappointing outcomes at the 2026 World Cup in the United States. Among those affected were Rudi Garcia of Belgium, who was not retained after a quarter-final exit, and Julian Nagelsmann of Germany, who resigned after losing in the round of 16 to Paraguay. Others, including Ronald Koeman of the Netherlands and Zlatko Dalić of Croatia, also stepped down following early eliminations. The World Cup has proven to be a make-or-break moment for many managers, as their teams struggled to advance past the early stages of the tournament.
