Julian Nagelsmann Extends Germany Coaching Contract Through Euro 2028

The 37-year-old coach, credited with revitalizing Germany's national team, commits to leading through the 2026 World Cup and Euro 2028.

Julian Nagelsmann, initially hired as Germany's coach in 2023, has extended his contract to remain in charge until Euro 2028.
The extension follows a successful Euro 2024 campaign on home soil, where Germany reached the quarterfinals before losing to eventual champions Spain.
Nagelsmann, the second youngest coach in Germany's history, has been praised for helping restore public support for the national team after years of underperformance.
The German Football Association (DFB) announced the contract extension during its 125th anniversary celebrations in Leipzig, where Nagelsmann previously managed RB Leipzig.
Germany's next major challenge under Nagelsmann will be a two-legged Nations League quarterfinal against Italy, which will determine their qualification path for the 2026 World Cup.
