Overview

• Joachim Löw, former coach of Germany's national football team, has been on an extended sabbatical since stepping down in 2021.
• Löw recently attended the DFB-Pokal semifinal between VfB Stuttgart and RB Leipzig, where he reiterated his openness to coaching if presented with an appealing offer.
• He has ruled out a return to club football, last coaching a club team in 2004, and prefers national team roles.
• Despite Brazil's search for a new coach, Löw is seen as an unlikely candidate due to his association with Germany's 7-1 victory over Brazil in the 2014 World Cup.
• Germany's resurgence under Julian Nagelsmann highlights a contrast with the challenges of Löw's final years as head coach.
