Gislason Says He Wants to Stay On as Germany Coach Beyond 2027

DHB signals performance at the 2026 European Championship will influence whether he continues.

Overview

  • Alfred Gislason told SID he enjoys the job and would like to keep leading the national team past his current deal.
  • His contract runs through 2027 and covers the European Championship in Denmark, Sweden and Norway as well as a home World Cup.
  • He said he will accept whatever decision the federation makes and acknowledged being 66 years old.
  • He described his relationship with DHB leaders as extremely good with steady communication.
  • He said he would keep coaching if not retained, while DHB president Andreas Michelmann noted reviews follow each tournament and a change would be considered only if the team badly underperforms at the Euros.
