Lothar Matthaus has been
appointed as the new manager of Hungarian side FC
Fehervar.
The former German international has signed a two-year deal while
the club also have the option of a further year if they wish to
extend his stay.
Matthaus was linked with the Cameroon national team post while
FC Basel of Switzerland and Dusseldorf in his native Germany were
also thought to be interested in his services.
The ex-Bayern Munich man had a stint in charge of the Hungary
national team in 2004/2005, with limited success, so he will be
determined to prove his worth with Fehervar, formally known as
Videoton.
"With the new coach, FC Fehervar wants to win the Hungarian
Championship in two years time," Fehervar general director Sandor
Berzi told the club's official website.
