Germany welcome the top national sides from across European football as they take on hosting duties at Euro 2024.
On the back of a difficult 12 months for the German national team, head coach Julian Nagelsmann is under pressure to ensure the hosts produce a solid showing, after qualifying automatically.
Nagelsmann was drafted in to replace Hansi Flick in September 2023, following the latter’s sacking by the German FA, and Nagelsmann’s contract has been extended until after the 2026 World Cup.
Changes and uncertainty have impacted Germany’s preparations for the tournament, but Nagelsmann still has an exciting young team at his disposal, including Bundesliga stars Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz.
