"We need to cover all aspects important for youth teams," Schoenweitz emphasized, "we look towards new ideas in a scientific way, and we need the one who understand the mentality of the youngsters at the specific age group."

"He is gifted when it comes to communicating with the players, and he knows what it takes to play a long tournament," former national team manager and ex-teammate of Kuntz, Oliver Bierhoff underlined.

His current players then could well be the ones he is coaching on the senior stage. "A coach winning the 2017 title and leading his team into the final two years later has got it in him, I wouldn't be surprised," Germany's fullback Benjamin Henrichs of Monaco commented.
