Former coach of the US team Jurgen Klinsman can become the coach of the national team of Japan.

This is reported by ESPN US, referring to the Japanese press.

It is expected that the current head coach of the Japanese national team Akira Nishino will leave the team in the coming days, as the Football Federation decided not to renew the contract with him.

In his place will be invited to the famous German specialist Jurgen Klinsman, who are willing to pay 2 million euros per year.

The last place of work Klinsman is the US team, which he coached in the period from 2011 to 2016. Prior to that, he led Bayern and the German national team.

Note that the Japanese left the World Cup in 2018 after a dramatic match against Belgium at the stage of the 1/8 finals (2: 3).
