Inspired by German soccer, Josh Wolff is ready to be Austin FC’s first coach

Josh Wolff was training and competing with 1860 Munich in the Bundesliga when he realized what the next phase of his career would eventually be.

“I think when I went to Germany, the game was presented in a different way,” Wolff told Pro Soccer USA. “One of the first things I think that I felt was like, wow this was something different and something that I enjoyed seeing and hearing.”

It dawned on the former U.S. men’s national team standout that he wanted to manage at the professional level.

Seven months ago, the 43-year old Wolff finally achieved that dream when he was named the first head coach of MLS expansion side Austin FC who will debut in 2021.
