Löw's resignation hit like a bomb.

Who will be the new national coach?

Six candidates have what it takes - we are discussing them.

Frankfurt - What a bang!

Joachim Löw will give up his position as national coach after the EM 2021.

A 15-year era with a world title is coming to an end.

Who could take on the most important position in German football?

The speculations are now really picking up speed.

These are the most promising candidates:

Jürgen Klopp

Klopp as national coach - the dream of many German football fans.

The Black Forest man is a popular figure, successful coach and football fool all in one.

It was often predicted that the day would come when Jürgen Klopp * would take over the German national team.

Is it time this summer?

He is deeply in crisis with Liverpool FC, but has also earned almost legendary status at the traditional English club.

It's no secret that the job at the DFB would appeal to him.

He's favorite for the job.

Ralf Rangnick

Together with Klopp, Rangnick is probably the most obvious candidate.

The RB Leipzig maker would be free and available immediately - if he wanted to.

He no longer has to prove his football skills to anyone.

Both as a trainer and as a functionary, he stands for success.

Nevertheless, the job as national coach is another matter because you have to get the whole country behind you.

Rangnick cannot keep up with Klopp in terms of sympathy.

Christian Streich

He has been turning water into wine at SC Freiburg for ten years and is a cult figure with a lot of footballing competence.

As a down-to-earth person, he also enjoys an enormous reputation throughout Germany.

Christian Streich as national coach?

Nobody thinks about that - but why not?

The obvious disadvantage: Streich would have to deal with absolute top stars and would be permanently in the public eye.

It is unclear whether this is the right job for the Baden resident.

It is also unclear whether he even wants that.

Julian Nagelsmann

His coaching career has only known one direction since the beginning: a steep upward trend.

With RB Leipzig * he is attacking the Bundesliga championship, international clubs want him.

Nagelsmann probably still has too many ambitions in club football.

But he does not rule out a commitment to the DFB “at some point”: “It's a job that I can basically imagine.

It is a great honor to be the national coach.

But I still want to be on the soccer field every day and haven't achieved enough, ”he said last year.

Hansi Flick

When the national trainer position becomes vacant, the best German trainers are automatically discussed.

Bayern coach Hansi Flick is one of the best - and may even be the best at the moment.

Jogi Löw's long-time assistant coach knows the DFB inside out and would definitely be a good national coach *.

However, according to his own statements, the task is out of the question for him.

“I have absolutely no reason to change anything,” he emphasized recently.

Stefan Kuntz

Kuntz usually stays in the background, but internally at the DFB, his work is highly valued.

He has been on the sidelines of the U21 national team since 2016.

After the 6-0 debacle against Spain, World Champion Benedikt Höwedes brought him into play: "I would like and believe that Stefan Kuntz will do it," he said.

Compared to Jürgen Klopp, he has less “format” - but that was no different at Jogi Löw in 2006 when he took over the job from Jürgen Klinsmann.
