Germany's World Cup Woes Linked to Societal Flaws, Claims Leverkusen Chief

Carro, who has been at the helm of the Bundesliga club since 2018 and overseen their historic 2024 league title and German Cup double, believes the team's underperformance goes beyond the pitch.

He specifically cited structural, political, and cultural deficiencies within German society as significant contributing factors to the team's recent World Cup setbacks.

The comments from the Leverkusen executive suggest a belief that a national malaise, rather than solely tactical or personnel issues, is hindering Germany's success in the sport's premier international tournament.
