Germany was eliminated from the Round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup after a match against Paraguay, which ended in a 1-1 draw, with Paraguay ultimately winning the penalty shootout 4-3. This defeat marked a historical first for the German national team, as they lost a World Cup penalty shootout. Despite the significant setback, manager Julian Nagelsmann publicly stated his commitment to his role managing Germany.
Following the match, Nagelsmann indicated that he has no immediate plans to leave his position. “I am ready and I want to continue, but in football, you don’t always have things in your hands,” he stated. He further clarified his willingness to remain with the team if the German Football Federation offers him the opportunity.
“If the German Football Federation wants me to continue, then I will prepare for the European Championship and the Nations League,” Nagelsmann announced. Nagelsmann’s current contract with Germany is set to conclude by the end of the month. His comments suggest that his future with the national squad will depend on the decisions made by the German Football Federation regarding future assignments.
