Markus Gaugisch and Germany agree on contract extension

The World Cup silver medal leads to renewed confidence for Markus Gaugisch. The coach of the German national team sets sight for the 2028 Olympics with a new contract.

– I’m grateful for the trust placed in me, he says to the federation website.

Reaching far up the podium placements was the best result for Germany in more than 30 years. Three more major competitions – Euro 2026, World Cup 2027 and the Los Angeles Games in 2028 will have Gaugisch in charge of the performance.

– As a team and in terms of handball skills, we want to continue developing our existing potential.

– We have now established a stable foundation, allowing us to work on the finer details of our game. That is our task in order to reach the next level, he says to the federation website.
