Voeller extends Germany role until Euro 2028
Rudi Voeller, a World Cup winner with Germany in 1990, has extended his contract as sporting director of the national team until Euro 2028, the German Football Association (DFB) announced on Wednesday, continuing his work alongside coach Julian Nagelsmann.
The extension to the 64-year-old's contract was signed at the end of March in the wake of Germany's win over Italy which sent them through to the semi-finals of the Nations League.
"The national team and the whole team within the DFB have become very dear to my heart," Voeller said in a press release.
"The enthusiasm of the Euro 2024 home tournament, and above all the collaboration with Julian Nagelsmann, have played a big part in this."
Voeller was appointed sporting director in February 2023, taking over briefly as interim coach following the sacking of Hansi Flick in September that year.
Under his charge, Germany beat France 2-1 in a friendly. He then formed part of the task force to find a successor to Flick, strongly arguing for Nagelsmann.
The former Bayern coach has already signed an extension to his contract that will take him through to Euro 2028.
Germany went on to reach the quarter-finals of Euro 2024, where they lost 2-1 to eventual winners Spain in extra-time, and now face Portugal in the Nations League semi-final on June 4 in Munich.
