Definitively past from her bench national Germany The Hansie Flickwith the country’s football federation announcing his dismissal!
The heavy defeat in the home friendly against Japan was finally the last of the “punchers” with the 58-year-old in their technical leadership, with his departure coming two years after his recruitment. At the same time, he was Joachim Lev’s assistant from 2006 to 2014.
“The board decided that a change was needed in the squad after recent disappointing results. We must look at the EURO we are organizing with optimism and confidence. For me, it was one of the most difficult decisions in my role as president, because I have great respect for Flick and his colleagues. But success is our first goal and so this decision was inevitable.”said the president of the German Confederation, Berd Neudorf.

Despite starting his tenure with 8 straight wins, Flick is basically paying it forward Germany’s poor performance at the World Cup in Qataras well as that his team continued to be disappointing in friendlies too which he has given since, “counting” just one win, along with one draw and four defeats.
As for the most likely replacements, Mr Julian Nagelsmann is the favorite, according to a report by the German “Bild”, while in the upcoming friendly against France (12/9, 22:00), the team will be led by Rudi Feller, Sandro Wagner and Hannes Wolff.
