Ink dry: Kuntz trains Turkish national team
Kuntz has signed a three-year contract in Turkey. For me it is a bit - or not a bit - how come home, said the 58-year-old, who played in the mid-1990s at Besiktas, at his idea on Monday. I want to become the German Turk or Turkish German. It had been hard, but fair negotiations in recent days with the Turkish Association. I m full of energy because I know what Turkish players have in them, Kuntz continues. Already on Sunday, the Turkish Association had confirmed an agreement with the German coach.
At the Turkish national team, Kuntz, who won the EM title with the German U 21 2017 and 2021, has a great challenge in front of him. In the World Cup Qualification Group, Turkey is currently ranking behind the Dutch and Norway in third place. On October 8, Turkey receives the direct competitor Norway - then for the first time with Kuntz on the bench.
I am very grateful to the DFB Presidium that it has released me prematurely from my contract.
