Joachim Löw and Uzbekistan: debates around the famous coach are intensifying

In the Middle Eastern sports media space, reports that famous German coach and 2014 World Cup winner Joachim Löw might be appointed as the head coach of the Uzbekistan national team have caused a stir, reports parsfootball.com. Some Farsi outlets in their commentary greeted this news with great interest and expressed hope that the national team would move to a new level.

In this context, the publication of a photo where Löw shakes hands with Pakhtakor club head Jahongir Ortiqkhojaev, who has achieved great success with Germany in competitions, also drew special attention. According to Farsi sources, this photo was seen as the first result of negotiations between Löw and the Uzbekistan Football Federation.

"While we are preparing for the Mundial together with Galenoi and Afozali, the Uzbekistan national team has reached an agreement with exactly the coach who became world champion. Joachim Löw is expected to start work as head coach in the near future," write Farsi media. At the same time, some comments note that regional football lags behind the world in many respects, and at least through an experienced specialist there is a chance to reach a new stage.

Recall that on December 4, 2024, a photo was published on social networks showing Jahongir Ortiqkhojaev and Joachim Löw together. This image further fueled the rumors about Löw’s activity in Uzbekistan.

Analysts believe that if this agreement comes to fruition, a new era will begin in the Uzbekistan national team; through an experienced specialist, the professional growth of the players and their competitiveness on the international stage will increase.

Fans are following this news with great interest — because the name Joachim Löw could open a new chapter not only for European, but also for Asian football. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
