It appears that a quick return to club soccer is not exactly in the cards for former Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann.
The national team coach life is suiting Nagelsmann well and the German national team manager has extended his contract through the EURO 2028 competition, which should provide the team with stability for three more years:

”In September 2023, when I joined the DFB, I could not have imagined being national team coach beyond the home Euros. Our big goal was a successful tournament. But I also couldn’t have imagined back then what the national team meant to the people of Germany. How many hearts it reaches and moves,” said Nagelsmann (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). This great feedback that we all, not just me, get every day shows us that we are on the right path together. And it’s not over yet. We have all created something together – fans, team and coaching staff — that we now want to successfully develop further. We want to win titles together.”
German national team director Rudi Völler was thrilled to keep Nagelsmann in place in longer.
“The fans, players and the entire DFB staff have been inspired by Julian over the past 16 months to achieve our goals. During this time, he has built up a close relationship with the fans, the players and the team behind the team and has once again formed a unity. This is necessary for success. We are looking forward to working with Julian in the long term and as passionately as before to achieve our big sporting ambitions,” Völler remarked (via @iMiaSanMia).
