Stefan Kuntz is no longer Turkey’s national football coach. The association has separated from the former coach of the German U21.
The end did not come as a surprise for the long-time German U21 national coach. Shortly after the 4-2 friendly defeat against Japan, the separation was announced in the Turkish media. The association initially denied this.
The 60-year-old Kuntz signed a three-year contract as Turkish national coach in September 2021. Kuntz’s successor has not yet been determined.
