Jürgen Klopp has reached a preliminary agreement with the German Football Association to take over the men's national team after Julian Nagelsmann. The agreement was reached following negotiations in New York and is expected to lead to a contract valid until the end of the 2030 World Cup. teraz.sk ↗
DFB president Bernd Neuendorf and vice-president Hans-Joachim Watzke flew from Frankfurt to New York on Friday, July 10, where they negotiated with Klopp about the future of the coaching position. The meeting at a hotel near JFK Airport lasted more than four hours. The association subsequently confirmed that the parties had agreed on the essential points of a possible contract and are convinced that the negotiations can lead to a definitive agreement. sme.sk ↗
An open question remains the consent of the Red Bull group, for which Klopp works. His current commercial and working ties are among the sensitive points of the entire arrangement. Also at stake is the continuation of Rudi Völler in the role of sporting director, whose experience Klopp reportedly wanted to draw on while working with the national team. La Repubblica ↗
The DFB's approach is also drawing criticism. Bastian Schweinsteiger has already questioned the association's narrow focus on Klopp, and among former national team players there are also warnings that the new coach alone will not be able to solve the deeper problems of German football. The next step is expected to be the conclusion of a formal agreement and clarification of Klopp's relationship with Red Bull. Der Standard ↗
