Germany Aiming to Build a Team for the Future

Julian Nagelsmann, the manager of Bayern Munich, has said that Germany's focus is now on developing a team for the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Germany won the World Cup in 2014, but they have struggled in recent tournaments, failing to get past the group stage in 2018 and being knocked out in the last 16 in 2021.

Nagelsmann's Plans for the Future

Nagelsmann, who is also the manager of the German national team, said that he is looking to build a team that is "young, hungry, and has a lot of potential."

He said that he is not interested in "quick fixes" and that he is willing to be patient in order to build a team that can challenge for the World Cup in 2026.

Key Players for the Future

Nagelsmann has a number of young players at his disposal, including Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz, and Karim Adeyemi.

These players are all considered to be some of the best young talents in the world, and they will be key to Germany's hopes of success in 2026.

Conclusion

Nagelsmann's focus on developing a team for the future is a sign that Germany are looking to build a long-term project.

It may take some time for the team to reach its full potential, but Nagelsmann is confident that they can challenge for the World Cup in 2026.
