Germany Under-21 boss Stefan Kuntz is in line for a new contract after guiding them to Euro 2017 glory.
The 54-year-old masterminded a 1-0 win over Spain in Friday’s final in Krakow as Germany claimed their second European title.
Mitchell Weiser’s first-half header in Poland earned a deserved victory to deny Spain the chance of a record-equalling fifth crown.
Kuntz was appointed boss in 2016 having not managed since 2003, while his previous job was as chief executive at Kaiserslautern.
But the German Football Association is ready to hand him a fresh deal to take him to the Olympics in Tokyo.
DFB president Reinhard Grindel told Bild: “Now we get together. We want to extend it until 2020.”
Kuntz added: “It makes me very proud, this moment. I would like to thank Hansi Flick, our former sporting director.
“When he put me in this position I faced criticism because I hadn’t worked as a coach for many years. This is a moment to thank those who stood by me in those days.
“In regards to extending my contract, I love my job and if the president repeats to me what he told you I’m sure we will find a solution.”
Max Meyer also hit the post for Germany as they silenced favourites Spain, who failed to seriously test Julian Pollersbeck until the goalkeeper turned Saul Niguez’s long-range effort wide midway through the second half.
And Schalke midfielder Meyer hailed the spirit of his side after they went into the game as underdogs.
“We had an outstanding start to the match, we were super aggressive and didn’t allow Spain to get a foothold in the game,” he told UEFA.com.
“We’d already played superbly against England, but the first half was just outstanding. It’s incredible, it’s the first time that I’ve won a big tournament like this in my career. It was a real show of character from this team.”
Spain captain Gerard Deulofeu, who will return to Barcelona from Everton this month for around £10.5million, ended his Under-21 career in Krakow.
The midfielder failed to find his best form in the tournament, being overshadowed by Saul, Dani Ceballos and Marco Asensio, and admitted Spain fell short.
“It’s a shame. We came into the game in good form but they were better,” he told UEFA.com.
“We were inhibited in the first half and didn’t show our personality and we paid the price. We improved in the second half but didn’t get the equaliser.
“Something was missing − our personality and our touch as well. There are national teams who play really well and Germany are one of them.
“That’s football, it is unforgiving. They were superior in the first half, we dominated the second but the goal wouldn’t come.”
