[ Editor] Team Leader Career

After retiring, Klinsmann's family lived in California, USA, and worked as a marketing planner for Los Angeles Galaxy, a major league team, without coaching any team.

On July 26th, 24, Klinsmann succeeded Rudi V?ller as the head coach of the German national football team. This decision was questioned by fans and critics, because at that time, Klinsmann did not have any experience in coaching the team. After taking office, Klinsmann immediately changed the teaching assistant group, recruited a large number of young German players into the national team, and eliminated many outstanding veterans. Klinsmann's tactical arrangement is very bold. For example, he used a lot of rookies such as Per Mertesacker and philipp lahm in the defence, and changed the traditional German overall control football into the main attack strategy of two-wing assault, and strongly advocated "Attacking football", which left a deep impression on many fans. As a result, Germany won the third place in the Intercontinental Nations Cup in 25, but its 4-3 victories over Australia and Mexico were very thrilling, and it lost to Brazil 2-3. The team scored 15 goals and lost 11 goals in 5 games, and the number of goals scored and goals conceded was amazing. After losing to Italy 4-1 in a warm-up match in 26, Klinsmann's tactics were doubted again.

In addition, Klinsmann's employment style is also very unique. For example, he has been uncertain about the main goalkeeper, so that jens lehmann and oliver kahn take turns to play. In addition, Klinsmann also adopted the strategy of ruling the army with an iron fist. For example, christian worns, a veteran defender of Leverkusen, was expelled from the national team for criticizing his tactics. In the meantime, Klinsmann also proposed to introduce hockey technology to train players, which was ridiculed as a big joke by many leaders of the German Football Association such as franz beckenbauer. Therefore, the relationship between Klinsmann and the top German of the German Football Association is not good. beckenbauer even claimed that if Klinsmann could not lead the national team into the semi-finals, he would have to resign.

However, Klinsmann's strategy of vigorously promoting young people has been successful, and the average age of German teams has been greatly reduced, far lower than that of Brazil with Cafu and roberto carlos and French teams with claude makelele and zinedine zidane. In the 26 World Cup in Germany, Klinsmann led the German team, which was not optimistic before the game, all the way through, defeating Sweden (note: the last time Sweden was defeated in the first half of 1992), Argentina (the last time in the second half of 199) and other strong teams, only losing to Italy in the semi-finals and winning the big season. However, he finally decided to leave with Italian champion coach Lippi, ending his two-year national team coaching career.

After the World Cup, Klinsmann was invited by many big clubs and other European and American national teams to be the coach, including Chelsea, England, USA and Tottenham Hotspur. However, on December 11th, 27, Bayern Munich and beckenbauer, president of the German Football Association, announced that Klinsmann would replace Ottmar Hitzfeld as the coach of Bayern Munich at the end of the 27-8 season.
