After Germany failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup group stage, coach Hansi Flick answered a question regarding his resignation. "We will quickly solve that problem, it is difficult to answer right after the match when we are eliminated. We will see about that soon."
After a period of discussion, the German Football Federation has made a decision on the future of the 57-year-old coach. Accordingly, Hansi Flick still gains the trust of the German Football Federation and will continue to plan to develop the team with the goal of winning the 2024 Euro championship.
Last summer, coach Hansi Flick signed a 3-year contract with the German national team. After the Tanks had an extremely impressive 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign, they were highly expected at the World Cup in Qatar. However, what the German team has done is only disappointing.
Germany started the 2022 World Cup with a 1-2 loss to Japan, followed by a 1-1 draw against Spain. In the final match, Hansi Flick's team won 4-2 against Costa Rica, but was still eliminated because Japan won 2-1 against Spain in the match at the same time. This is the second World Cup in which the Tanks have failed to pass the group stage.
Coach Hansi Flick will have to change many things to help Germany move up. Ahead of the 2024 Euro qualifiers.
