Klopp claims Germany can beat France Jürgen Klopp, newly appointed Germany manager, stated that the Mannschaft can defeat France despite their recent 4-6 loss to England on July 18, 2026. The former Liverpool boss expressed his confidence in the team during his first press conference. ## What did Klopp say about France? Klopp acknowledged that France has a stronger pool of players but emphasized that Germany must rediscover its playing identity to compete. "We can beat them," he asserted, adding that the work begins now to prepare for upcoming challenges. ## Why it matters for France France, struggling with just one win in five matches (1W-0D-4L), must prepare to face Türkiye on September 25, 2026. Klopp's statement serves as a reminder that France will need to be wary of Germany, a team in rebuilding but determined. ## What's next for Germany? Klopp stressed that Germany must regain its confidence and style of play. With an upcoming match against Türkiye, the team will need to prove it can bounce back after a difficult period. France, meanwhile, will need to focus on its own rebuilding after a string of defeats.
