Loew extends deal by 2 years
Print Edition
GERMANY coach Joachim Loew has extended his contract with the world champion by two years until 2020, the German football association, or DFB, said yesterday.
The 56-year-old, who will become the second-longest serving Germany manager behind Sepp Herberger, has been in the job since 2006 and led his team to victory in the 2014 World Cup. It has reached at least the semifinals in the last five major tournaments, winning 94 of his 141 games in charge.
“The aim is the repeat in Russia in 2018 the success of Rio in 2014,” Loew told reporters. “Beyond that is the European title. That is a special challenge. We did not make it this year. For me it is a big aim.”
Loew’s previous contract had run to the 2018 World Cup and he will now lead the team’s Euro 2020 campaign.
An assistant to predecessor Juergen Klinsmann from 2004-2006, Loew has only limited Bundesliga experience, having coached VfB Stuttgart before jobs in Austria and Turkey.
