The German Football Association (DFB) has confirmed that the leadership intends to hold final talks with Klopp.
"The DFB leadership will now seek talks with Jürgen Klopp. He has already signaled his willingness to take on the position," the federation's statement reads.
The need for a coaching change arose after Germany's disastrous performance at the 2026 World Cup, where Die Mannschaft were sensationally knocked out by Paraguay in the round of 16, prompting Julian Nagelsmann to step down. Now, Klopp is the leading candidate to restore Germany to the pinnacle of world football.
