Germany Settles On Nagelsmann As Manager For EURO 2024

Germany Settles On Nagelsmann As Manager For EURO 2024

Germany have settled on Julian Nagelsmann to become the new national team manager.

Nagelsmann has agreed a contract until the end of next summer's European championships which will be hosted by Germany.

The 36-year-old was unattached after getting sacked by Bayern Munich back in March.

Germany sacked Hansi Flick as manager after a poor run of form culminated in a 4-1 home defeat to Japan during the recent international break.

Nagelsmann said: "We have a European Championship in our own country. That's something special - something that happens every few decades.

"I subordinate everything to the fact of having a great tournament in a great country. I have a great desire to take on this challenge. We will be a close-knit group next year."

Rudi Voller, the DFB sporting director who took charge of Germany's 2-1 win over France following Flick's dismissal, added: "Nagelsmann was our preferred candidate as national coach when the search began.

"He is not only an absolute football expert but has already proven in all his positions - at a very young age for a head coach - that he can motivate and inspire a team and the entire environment.

"His fire for football is noticeable and contagious. His qualities and his personality will play a crucial role in ensuring that we will all experience a great European Championship in our own country in the summer."

Nagelsmann will start his Germany reign with friendly matches against United States of America and Mexico next month.
