Klinsmann quits
He denies speculation that he will coach the American national side, but this certainly won’t quiet the rumours:
Jurgen Klinsmann has stepped down as Germany coach after two years in charge and been replaced by assistant coach Joachim Loew.
“My big wish is to go back to my family, to go back to leading a normal life with them,” said Klinsmann, 41, who is based in California.
“After two years of putting in a lot of energy, I feel I lack the power and the strength to continue in the same way.
Loew, 46, had been Klinsmann’s assistant for two years.
