'Master Who Led World Cup Win', Confirms Breakup With Germany After Paris Olympics

Basket News, a U.S. basketball media outlet, reported on the 16th (Korea Standard Time) that "Gordon Herbert, head coach of the German men's basketball team, will leave the team after the 2024 Paris Olympics."

Herbert took the helm of the German men's basketball team since 2021. He placed Germany in third place at the 2022 FIBA EuroBasket and led the team to the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup. It was the first time last year that Germany won a basketball World Cup. After defeating the world's strongest United States in the semifinals, they beat Serbia in the final to win the title.


Naturally, Herbert's stock price went up. After the end of the World Cup, the European club team offered to recruit him, but he could not afford to because his contract with Germany would last until 2025. The German Basketball Association (DBB) did not allow him to hold an additional position. However, Herbert had strong will to pursue new challenges, and the German Basketball Association decided to separate by mutual agreement after the Paris Olympics, respecting his opinion.

"We know that Coach Herbert wants to focus on other things after the Olympics, and we also wanted to open the way for him. Anyone who knows Coach Herbert knows that he will devote himself and passionately prepare for the Olympics. It would be great if our time together ends with another good result," said an official of the German Basketball Association.

Herbert said, "It was an incredible experience and honor to be able to coach the German men's basketball team. I am grateful to everyone who gave me the opportunity to play on this team. The coaching staff, support team, medical team, and media team were all amazing. It was the best moment of my life. It is all thanks to the players, and it is an honor to be able to coach young players. All the players have played for Germany with dignity and respect. I will now prepare for the last challenge, the Paris Olympics."

Herbert's contract with Germany will officially end on August 31 after the Paris Olympics. It seems that many teams want him. There were also reports that the Chiba Jets of the B. League in Japan appointed him as the coach of the new season. This is why I wonder where the next destination of the master who led the World Cup will be. 토토사이트 모음
