Flick’s side did manage to beat Costa Rica but finished third and exited the World Cup in the group stages for a second successive tournament.

Despite the poor performance the German Football Association has decided to continue with Flick for the next major tournament.

Flick sat down with German FA bosses Bernd Neuendorf and Hans-Joachim Watzke for a two-and-a-half-hour meeting.

It was decided that Flick would continue in his post and German FA president Neuendorf offered his support to the 57-year-old in a public statement.

He said: “We are all convinced that the 2024 European Championship in our own country represents a great opportunity for football in Germany.

“Our goal is to make this tournament a sporting success. We have full confidence in Hansi Flick that he will master this challenge together with his team.”

Flick is confident his team will learn lessons from their Qatar heartbreak and will be ready to improve at the Euros.

He said: “My coaching team and I are optimistic about the European Championship in our own country.
