The selection of the head coach and coach of the men's national soccer team for the 2028 Los Angeles (LA) Olympics will be carried out in an open recruitment manner.

The Korea Football Association announced on the 15th that it will openly hire the coach and coach of the men's Olympic team to lead the team until the LA Olympics.

This recruitment is the association's second open recruitment of national team leaders by age, following the open recruitment of the men's under-20 national team coach.

The association decided to reorganize the national team's operating system through a meeting of the Power Enhancement Committee in February. At that time, the Korea Power Reinforcement Committee decided to separate the Olympic team and operate it early by changing the way the U-23 national team under the existing coach Lee Min-sung managed the Asian Games and the Olympics. However, this time, a coach and a coach will receive support in the form of a team.

The qualification requirement is that the coach must have an Asian Football Confederation (AFC) P level (or equivalent qualification) and the coach must have an AFC A level (or equivalent qualification) leadership certificate. In addition, both coaches and coaches must have a certificate of level 2 or higher as a professional sports instructor.

The Power Reinforcement Committee conducts the first document review based on the national team operation plan submitted by applicants. After that, the final successful candidates will be announced in early May after evaluation procedures such as in-depth interviews to verify leadership philosophy and qualifications.

The recruitment period is from this day to 5 p.m. on the 27th. Detailed recruitment notices and application forms can be found on the association's website.
