Julian Nagelsmann's Post-Euro Future: Bayern Munich, German National Team, or Elsewhere?
Bayern Munich's New Boss
Julian Nagelsmann has signed a five-year deal with Bayern Munich, ending months of speculation about his future. The 36-year-old will officially take over the reins at the Allianz Arena after the conclusion of Euro 2020, replacing Hansi Flick, who recently requested a contract termination.
Nagelsmann's Current Contract
Nagelsmann's current contract with the German national team runs through the completion of Euro 2024. However, his move to Bayern Munich suggests that he is not interested in fulfilling his contract with the DFB. This decision has come as a surprise, as Nagelsmann was widely expected to succeed Joachim Löw as manager of the national team.
Bayern Munich's Triumphant Return
Nagelsmann takes over a Bayern Munich team that has just won its ninth consecutive Bundesliga title. The German giants also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League and the final of the DFB-Pokal under Flick's leadership. Nagelsmann will be tasked with continuing Bayern's success while also putting his own stamp on the team.
Nagelsmann's Managerial Style
Nagelsmann is known for his attacking brand of football and his ability to get the best out of his players. He has led RB Leipzig to two Bundesliga titles and the Champions League semi-finals. Nagelsmann will be looking to implement his philosophy at Bayern Munich and to make the team even more dominant both domestically and in Europe.
Nagelsmann's Future with the German National Team
It remains to be seen whether Nagelsmann will continue to manage the German national team after Euro 2020. The DFB is reportedly keen to keep him in charge, but it is possible that Nagelsmann will step down to focus on his club career. If he does leave the national team, it could open the door for Joachim Löw to return as manager.
