How Germany's greatest goalscorer is guiding the next generation

Miroslav Klose, Germany's all-time leading goalscorer, recognizes the importance of a true goalscorer for a team. As the boss of FC Nuremberg, Klose emphasizes the need for someone in the box to score goals, as that is where they are closest to the goal. He believes in practicing the final ball, such as crosses and shots, to create harmony on the pitch.

Klose's diligence in training and attention to detail led to his success, as he would study opponents' movements and analyze goalkeepers' positions. Klose admires Harry Kane's evolution as a player and sees him as a great role model for young prospects. Despite being in his late 30s when he won the World Cup with Germany in 2014, Klose believes that a major tournament triumph remains possible.

FC Nuremberg, under Klose's guidance, has the youngest average age in the 2. Bundesliga and aims to return to the Bundesliga for the first time since 2019.
