Germany’s struggles under Flick
Flick’s reign as Germany’s head coach ended after a run of only one win in six matches, with DFB executives worried about the 58-year-olds ability to lead the team in the 2024 European Championships on home soil.

The former assistant to World Cup winner Joachim Low came highly recommended after winning the treble in his only full season with Bayern Munich, but Die Mannschaft’s performances during his tenure left too much to be desired.
Under Flick, Germany failed to qualify from the group stages of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, despite being grouped alongside Japan and Costa Rica.
Nagelsmann to replace Flick again
With results not improving after the World Cup, Germany decided to part ways with Flick and named a replacement for the former national team manager.
Flick’s replacement at Germany will be none other than his replacement at Bayern Munich, Nagelsmann, who parted ways with the Bavarians in March.
Nagelsmann was sacked at the tail end of the 2022/23 season, despite being alive in all three competitions that Bayern were involved in. Nagelsmann is still one of the most revered managers in football and turned down a move to Chelsea after leaving Bayern Munich.
