Ahead of facing Bayern Munich, Hertha Berlin Coach’s Training License is Invalid

DBasia.news –  Hertha Berlin would likely not be accompanied by coach, Juergen Klinsmann, when facing Bayern Munich, this weekend. As the 55-year-old coach was declared not to possess a valid coaching license.

Based on Bild’s report, Juergen Klinsmann and Hertha Berlin were asked by DFB to provide legal documents that prove the validity of the coaching license. They were given a deadline until ahead of the match against Bayern Munich, Sunday (1/19/2020).

The thing that makes it difficult for Klinsmann, all the required documents are at his home in California, United States. The difficulty is, there is no one at his house at this time as his wife is at their daughter’s.

“When flying to Berlin at the end of November, I didn’t think I needed to bring a training license and other educational evidence. The thing is, at that time, I didn’t know I would become Hertha’s coach, “Juergen Klinsmann said as quoted by Bild.

The German national team captain at the 1996 European Cup champion further revealed, “At Christmas, I completely forgot about the documents. At present, no one is in my home in California as my wife is at our daughter’s place of study. However, I am trying to bring all the documents needed. “

Juergen Klinsmann received a coaching license in 2000 in a special course held by the DFB for former German national team players. Thanks to that license, he then handled Die Mannschaft, Bayern Munich, and the United States national team.

The problem now is, Juergen Klinsmann must be able to show evidence of subsequent training. As the license must be renewed every three years. The last time he served as Sam’s Army trainer was at the end of November 2016.

If he is unable to submit evidence that shows a valid coaching license, Juergen Klinsmann is certain to be absent during Hertha Berlin’s match against Bayern Munich. His position will be temporarily taken over by his assistant, Alexander Nouri.
