Germany Football Team Manager : Klopp and Nagelsmann have both ruled themselves out of the job
Ever since Joachim Low and Germany announced that the incumbent coach of the German football team would be stepping down come the end of the ongoing season, news has been rife about his potential replacement.
Low who has been at the helm of German football since 2006 recently revealed that he would be parting ways with Germany come the end of the forthcoming Euro 2020. Low has won one World Cup and a Confederations Cup in charge of the side while ending up in second place in the Euro as well.
Both Jurgen Klopp and RB Leipzig’s Nagelsmann were touted to take over from Low but with both ruling themselves out of the role, Bayern Munich’s Hansi Flick is said to be currently leading the race. A slew of outlets in the country along with Christian Falk have gone onto reveal that the German football association is extremely keen on roping in Flick.

Germany Enticed By Flick
Its not only Flick’s exceptional reign at Bayern Munich which have seen him spearhead the race but also the time he spent with Low. Flick served as Flick’s assistant with the German football team for a period of eight years with the two getting started at their roles in 2006.
Flick who took over from Niko Kovac at Bayern Munich not only overhauled a struggling Bayern Munich outfit but transformed them into an invincible unit. He’s left manifold titles in only 18 months with the lengthy list of trophies including the Bundesliga and Champions League.
His exceptional transformation of the German club has seen Bayern Munich be quick to clobber any news of Flick leaving the club for the Germany. Club CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge shot down the prospect of Flick leaving to become Germany boss, saying the coach will remain at Bayern for the next season.
However, with Rummenigge stepping from his position at Bayern Munich at the turn of the year as Oliver Kahn replaces him, Flick may be coaxed into opting for the Germany job.
