Lothar Matthaeus is Germany’s most capped international of all time and during his professional career, he won almost every award that it is possible to win in football. Now the former midfield powerhouse is planning to follow up on the successes of his active playing days as a trainer.

Lothar Matthaeus is Germany’s most capped international of all time and during his professional career, he won almost every award that it is possible to win in football. Now the former midfield powerhouse is planning to follow up on the successes of his active playing days as a trainer. To reach that particular goal though, he has a long and rocky road ahead of him.

 

Right now, Matthaeus is working on attaining his football teaching licence and, for that reason, made a two day stop-over with Werder Bremen last week, in order to cast a watchful eye over the shoulder of Green-Whites coach Thomas Schaaf: “All you can do is tip your hat to the work he has done here,” said the former Hungarian national team coach. Schaaf himself made it clear that he didn’t need to teach Matthaeus about football but that the period of observation could prove helpful in “extending the wealth of his experience as well as to help him assess the on-going structures and learn how it all slots together.”
