Showing pictures of Nagelsmann at Germany's footbal association (DFB) headquarters in Frankfurt, Bild reported on Thursday that the coach had been offered a severance package of €7 million (US$8 million) to leave the position in a three-hour meeting.Last renewed in January 2025, Nagelsmann's contract is set to run until 2028. Figures on his annual salary have not been made public, although German media reports he earns roughly €7 million per year.
