Leipzig (AP) - Hermann Winkler, Vice President of the German Football Association (DFB), considers Ralf Rangnick to be a suitable candidate for the job as national coach.
“He has often proven that he is the right man strategically - especially in Hoffenheim and at RB Leipzig.
And he does not come from the DFB haze, "said Winkler in an interview with the" Leipziger Volkszeitung "(Wednesday).
“It's also about youth work and the dovetailing between the next generation and the A selection.
Rangnick brings everything with him. "
Winkler also expressed doubts that DFB director Oliver Bierhoff was the right man to start over with the national team.
«He worked with Jogi Löw for 17 years.
That says it all.
I hope that his personnel suggestions for the national coaching post will be evaluated in the Presidium and that we will have alternatives, ”said Winkler.
The DFB wants to name a successor to Joachim Löw, who will be leaving after the EM, by mid-July.
Winkler criticized the external presentation of the DFB as “not building trust” and demanded: “Amateurs and professionals must advance football together.
However, leadership is required here.
The amateurs rightly expect the arguments to end. "
The President of the Northeast German Football Association pointed out that the national team is the DFB's figurehead and the driving force behind the amateurs.
“That's why the ship must finally be cleared.
Everyone has to pull together, ”emphasized Winkler.
