Jürgen Klopp has emerged as the leading candidate to succeed as Germany’s head coach. The team displayed lackluster performance throughout the tournament, notably struggling against Cote d’Ivoire before being eliminated by Ecuador and Paraguay.

Klopp has confirmed he is in talks to take over as Germany’s coach, stating that he has “recharged” the energy he lacked during his time at Liverpool.
He is the top choice of the German football federation following Julian Nagelsmann’s resignation on Friday, just four days after Germany’s penalty loss to Paraguay in the World Cup’s round of 32.
“Julian has stepped down and the (federation) is working on the succession and has approached me in the course of those considerations,” said Klopp, speaking from New York on German broadcaster Magenta TV in his role as a World Cup commentator late Friday.
