Nagelsmann to remain Germany coach until 2026

Julian Nagelsmann has reportedly signed a new deal to continue his stint as the German national team manager.

The former Bayern Munich boss took over in charge of the Nationalelf back in September 2023 and has since overseen six matches in charge of Germany with a record of three wins, one draw, and two defeats.

However, those two most recent victories were improved performances and victories over France and the Netherlands in friendly games last month.

The 36-year-old was linked with club roles this summer for after the 2024 European Championships with Liverpool and Manchester United among the teams referenced.

Now though, Nagelsmann has committed himself to the German national team until 2026 where he will oversee the country's World Cup campaign in North America should they, as expected, qualify for the tournament.

"This is a decision of the heart," Nagelsmann said about his new deal. "It is a great honor to train the national team and work with the best players in the country. With successful, passionate appearances, we have the chance to sweep an entire country.

"The two victories against France and the Netherlands gave a foretaste of this in March. The enthusiasm of the fans touched me very much. Together we want to play a successful home European Championship, we all burn for that. After that, together with my coaching team, I'm really looking forward to the challenge of a World Cup."
