Summary
Sky Germany reported a “serious scenario” in which the DFB removes Julian Nagelsmann, with support for the national team coach said to be crumbling inside the presidium.
An overnight meeting involving Bernd Neuendorf, Andreas Rettig, Rudi Völler and Nagelsmann followed Germany’s failure to match its potential, and the federation plans a deeper review in the coming days.
Nagelsmann has ruled out resigning despite the pressure; his contract runs through home Euro 2028 and is worth up to €8 million a year.
Jürgen Klopp has already surfaced internally as a possible successor, and Sky said the Red Bull global football chief would be willing to take the Germany job if approached.
The talks extend beyond the head coach, with the DFB also discussing wider personnel consequences after what Neuendorf called a devastating blow.
