Overview

  • After a 1-0 extra-time loss to Spain in the Euro 2025 semi-finals, DFB president Bernd Neuendorf declared full confidence in coach Christian Wück’s project.
  • Wück’s bold squad overhaul phased out veterans in favor of emerging talents like Franziska Kett and Carlotta Wamser, a move that drew early communication criticism but ultimately unified the team.
  • Tactical adjustments following a heavy defeat to Sweden saw Wück shift from aggressive offense to greater defensive stability in the knockout rounds.
  • Observers including Turid Knaak highlighted the need for improved creative link-up to better exploit playmakers such as Jule Brand and Klara Bühl.
  • The DFB leadership has outlined a clear multi-year plan under Wück, giving him until the 2027 World Cup to refine his system and restore Germany’s title ambitions.
