Joachim Löw Declined Saudi Arabia Coaching Offer in 2023

The former Germany coach reportedly turned down a lucrative role, with Roberto Mancini later taking and leaving the position within a year.

Joachim Löw, former Germany national team coach, reportedly rejected a 2023 offer to coach Saudi Arabia's national team, according to Sport Bild.
The position was later filled by Roberto Mancini in August 2023, who signed a high-value contract but left the role by October 2024.
Löw, who has been out of coaching since leaving the German national team in 2021, has expressed interest in returning to the sidelines, particularly in international tournaments.
Löw's coaching career includes leading Germany to the 2014 FIFA World Cup title and multiple deep runs in major tournaments, though his tenure ended after disappointing results in 2021.
Saudi Arabia is set to host the FIFA World Cup in 2034, making the position a potentially high-profile opportunity.
