New coach Klopp's first Germany games a mixed bag, question marks loom over Havertz, Wirtz and Musiala.

Jürgen Klopp has finished his first international window in charge of Germany with mixed results. Across four Nations League fixtures, the team recorded one victory, two draws and one defeat, scoring three goals in total.

The run included a 2-0 victory against Serbia, a 1-1 draw with the Netherlands, a 0-0 draw in Thessaloniki and a 0-1 home defeat. Those outcomes leave Germany third in a four-team group. Klopp still described the performances in positive terms after Sunday's goalless game.

The former Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool manager used the break to look at a large pool of players. He named a 44-man squad that was divided across the matches, describing it as a one-time approach aimed at finding players able to step up internationally. He said the newcomers showed strong effort and ability.

Germany is coming off early exits at the 2022 tournament and in the last 32 in 2026, leaving confidence low. While Klopp retains goodwill from his club career, the article notes he will need to convert experimentation and encouraging signs into wins in the coming matches.
