Jurgen Klopp has told the German FA (DFB) he is "fundamentally willing" to take over as Germany coach after Julian Nagelsmann handed in his resignation, the DFB confirmed on Friday.
Nagelsmann, who had a contract until 2028, stepped down from the job on Friday, just four days after Germany's disappointing last-32 exit to Paraguay.
In a statement, the DFB said discussions would begin with Klopp, the former Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund manager, while thanking Nagelsmann for his almost three-year stint.
