Germany, who won the FIFA 2014 World Cup, coach Joachim Low has said that he would remain in charge of the national team until at least the 2016 European Championship in France.
It was being speculated that Low might step down after his squad lifted Germany's fourth World Cup in Brazil with a 1-0 victory over Argentina this month.
Low, who replaced Jurgen Klinsmann in 2006, had signed a new contract until 2016 earlier this year, The BBC reported.
Low said that he could imagine nothing better than continuing to work with the German squad, adding that he needed some time to come to terms with his emotions after the World Cup but had not thought even for a second about stepping down from his position.
He said that Germany celebrated a gigantic success in Brazil, but there are still further goals that they want to accomplish, adding that the 2014 World Cup was a high point for all of them, but it was not an end point.
