Will Klinsmann stay?
This is the question that clouds the German party. Will the coach that made Germany fall back in love with their football team leave or not?
The increasingly desperate calls for Jurgen Klinsmann to stay show just how real the fear is that Germany’s run to the semi-finals was down to the coach’s sheer force of personality.
Unless he decides to renew his contract and lead the team into their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign there will be doubts about whether the three-times world and European champions are really back as a force.
“We all need to take a deep breath now,” Klinsmann said as the team were given a rousing reception on the Fan Mile in Berlin on Sunday.
“We’ve had seven intensive weeks and it was fantastic. It’s absolutely insane what happened and we have to come to terms with it first. We all need a bit of time.”
