Germany have confirmed coach Joachim Low has signed a contract extension, committing his future to the national team to 2022.
Joachim Low has agreed a two-year contract extension to take his time in charge of the Germany national team through to 2022.

Germany are among the favourites again in Russia, having triumphed with an experimental young squad at the Confederations Cup last year.
