German Football Association contact Julian Nagelsmann for national team job

Nagelsmann has been without club since being dismissed as Bayern's manager

According to the German newspaper SportBild, the DFB was able to get in touch with Bayern Munich about Julian Nagelsmann replacing the new manager of Germany.

The DFB will attempt to make their new manager public in a timely manner after Tuesday's exhibition with France.

According to the rumour, Julian Nagelsmann, who is still on the payroll of the club, has been in communication with Bayern Munich through DFB Vice-President Hans-Joachim Watzke to arrange his release.

In order for the DFB to possibly hire Nagelsmann, Bayern is willing to release him on the open market. The federation also inquired about the Bayern board's opinion of his suitability for the national team.

His young age and potential inexperience of Nagelsmann raise some concerns for the DFB. Nagelsmann, 36, will be among the youngest head coaches in the European Championship in Germany in 2019 in addition to the youngest.

The procedure of perhaps appointing Nagelsmann as the future head coach of Germany might be set underway as Bayern wavers on compensation for its former head coach.

Germany ended a tough international break on a successful note. The German national team recovered with a win against France on Tuesday after suffering a humbling loss to Japan. Unfortunately, Hansi Flick was fired as a result of the loss to Japan. Germany's hunt for its next manager may involve a big contribution from Bayern Munich.

Rudi Voller, the sporting director, was given permission by DFB to attend Germany's pre-game practice. Voller made it obvious following Tuesday's victory that he would not be filling the coaching post to the fullest extent. Julian Nagelsmann, a former head coach of Bayern Munich, is considered a front-runner to succeed Flick.

Nagelsmann was fired by Bayern at the end of March as a result of the team's unsatisfactory form. Due to a five-year contract he signed in 2021, Die Roten was paying the German manager at the time. If teams want to hire Nagelsmann, they will need to negotiate a fee with Rekordmeister.
