Germany have appointed Jurgen Klopp as their new head coach, with the former Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund manager tasked with rebuilding the national team after another disappointing World Cup campaign.⁣
⁣
The German Football Association (DFB) confirmed Klopp’s appointment on Friday, replacing Julian Nagelsmann, who left after Germany were knocked out by Paraguay on penalties in the round of 32.⁣
⁣
The result extended Germany’s difficult run at recent World Cups, following group-stage exits in 2018 and 2022.⁣
⁣
Klopp, who most recently worked as Red Bull’s global head of football, said leading the national team was a “special” challenge.⁣
⁣
“The national team can connect us Germans like hardly anything else,” Klopp said. “I am looking forward to this special task in German football.”⁣
⁣
He added that the goal was to build a team that “fights for each other, enjoys football and behind which the people of our country can rally”.⁣
⁣
Klopp will be supported by assistants Peter Krawietz, Pep Lijnders and former Germany international Sven Bender.⁣
⁣
The DFB also appointed 2014 World Cup winner Per Mertesacker as managing director for sport, with the former defender signing a contract through to the 2030 World Cup.⁣
