Football project requires review

The German football is facing a significant crisis following the elimination of its national team from the 2026 World Cup. The German Football Association is calling for a comprehensive review of player development methods and coaching choices, amid a decline in the tactical identity and performance level that once characterized the team. This crisis is considered the result of years of accumulated issues, as the influence of the German school of football—based on discipline and physical strength—has diminished, even though clubs continue to compete at the continental level.
