Germany’s national team has set its sights on the 2026 World Cup. Coach Julian Nagelsmann has openly stated his ambition to lift the trophy in three years’ time. The expanded tournament, featuring 48 teams across the USA, Canada, and Mexico, will run from June 11 to July 19.
Nagelsmann’s bold target comes as the team rebuilds confidence. Bayern Munich defender Jonathan Tah has backed the coach’s vision, insisting Germany has the quality to go beyond the quarter-finals. He even believes outright victory is within reach.
Tah also highlighted the emergence of Bayern teammate Lennart Karl. After strong performances in the Bundesliga and Champions League, Tah argued Karl deserves a place in the World Cup squad. His praise focused on Karl’s consistency and ability to handle high-pressure matches. The 2026 edition will be the first World Cup with 48 nations. Matches will be spread across 16 cities in North America, marking the tournament’s largest-ever format. Despite the scale, Germany’s players appear determined to meet the challenge.
The national team’s renewed self-belief aligns with Nagelsmann’s ambitions. Tah’s support for both the squad and Karl’s inclusion signals growing optimism. With preparations underway, Germany’s campaign will begin in June 2026.
