After five months, Wuck is now leading his nation’s U-15 team. However, he is going back to “his” U-17 team for the FIFA U-17 World Cup Indonesia 2023TM, and he is determined to make waves globally with most of the players who won the European Championship at his disposal.
Before his third U-17 World Cup as Germany’s head coach, 50-year-old Wuck spoke with FIFA about what he wanted for the current season, his recollections of past competitions, and much more.
