Germany's World Cup campaign ended this week after a dramatic penalty shootout against Paraguay. Following the exit, German Sky reported that the DFB had given national team coach Julian Nagelsmann an ultimatum - resign voluntarily or be fired.

Now the 38-year-old has chosen to resign on his own.

Meanwhile, former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has been identified as the frontrunner to take over. And now the federation confirms that discussions are underway with Klopp, who is “fundamentally positive” about taking over the German national team.

According to Bild, Nagelsmann will receive seven million euros, around 77 million kronor, in compensation for quitting.
