US job link just speculation says Klinsmann
2006-06-27
Germany manager Jurgen Klinsmann has laughed off suggestions that he would be tempted to become coach of the United States team so he could be close to his California-based family. "The USA link is speculation which doesn't interest me. I have my own job here," said Klinsmann Monday. Klinsmann was promoting his sports marketing firm in the United States before taking charge of Germany in August 2004. He caused controversy by jetting back and forth to California to see his family rather than relocating to Germany on a permanent basis. Klinsmann is yet to pen a new deal as Germany coach saying his future hinges on the World Cup. Germany have reached the quarter-finals and will play Argentina in Berlin on Friday. For the United States, ranked fifth in the FIFA world rankings, it has been a miserable finals as they crashed out without winning a single match. Coach Bruce Arena is expected to stand down after eight years in the US job and potential successors - such as Klinsmann - are being put forward in the media.
