Matthaus: Target SA 2010

He was one of the most talented and successful players in the history of the game. Along with 150 caps, a German record, Lothar Matthaus won almost everything there was to win during his 21-year career. His haul included the 1990 FIFA World Cup™, the European Cup ten years earlier and a grand total of seven domestic league titles with Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, as well as two national and two UEFA Cups. Matthaus also scooped a number of individual awards, most notably when he was named World Soccer Player of the Year in 1990 and FIFA World Player of the Year in 1991.

Now 46, Matthaus hung up his boots seven years ago and turned his attentions to coaching. After steering Partizan Belgrade to the Serbian league title in 2003, he also took them into the UEFA Champions League. Matthaus also made his home country sit up and pay attention when the Hungarian national team which he was coaching recorded a 2-0 win over Germany. He is currently to be seen on German pay TV channel Premiere as one of its resident panel of experts.

In an exclusive interview with FIFA.com, Matthaus spoke of his plans for 2008, the prospects of the Mannschaft at the UEFA EURO 2008 and the 2010 FIFA World Cup™.Read More
