FIFA World Cup First international Manager The Germany national football team, founded in 1900. Between 1949 and 1990, separate German national teams were recognised by FIFA due to Allied occupation and division: the DFB's team representing the Federal Republic of Germany (named West Germany from 1949 to 1990), the Saarland team representing the Saar Protectorate (1950–1956) and the East German team representing the German Democratic Republic (1952–1990). The latter two were absorbed along with their records; the present team represents the reunified Federal Republic. The official name and code "Germany FR (FRG)" was shortened to "Germany (GER)" following reunification in 1990.

He has previously managed TSG Hoffenheim, RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. Nagelsmann was appointed by Bayern Munich in 2021 for a world record managerial transfer worth €25 million (£21.7 million), making him the most expensive manager ever. He won the Bundesliga title in his debut season, but was dismissed as manager from the club in March 2023.
In September 2023, he was appointed as the coach of the Germany national team.
Nagelsmann is known for his versatility with formations, maintaining possession, and implementing gegenpressing, whereby the team, after losing possession, immediately attempts to win back possession, rather than falling back to regroup. He was considered to be one of the best young managers in world football in 2021.","8C128606F1271EBD3FC32654DF08FF79":"Deutscher FuBball-Bund e.V.

They have also been runners-up three times in the European Championships, four times in the World Cup, and a further four third-place finishes at World Cups. East Germany won Olympic Gold in 1976. Germany is the only nation to have won both the FIFA World Cup and the FIFA Women's World Cup. At the end of the 2014 World Cup, Germany earned the second highest Elo rating of any national football team in history, with 2,223 points. Germany is also the only European nation that has won a FIFA World Cup in the Americas.
