Not impressed by what Brazil already had to offer, Germany’s head coach Joachim Löw has decided to build his own training camp for the football World Cup in 2014.
Löw, who wants his team’s preparations to be perfect, has decided to take the unusual step of constructing his team’s base from scratch ahead of next summer’s tournament.
The site will be called “Camp Bahia” after the Brazilian state it is in.
According to the Bild newspaper, the complex will include 13 apartments, a training pitch and a press centre. It will be home to the players as well as the backroom staff for the duration of the competition.
Other hotels such as the Mabu Costa Brasilis Resort, just 200 metres up the coast, were not up to scratch according to Bild.
Located in the small coastal village of Santo André, which has less than 1,000 inhabitants, the site is only 15 kilometres away from an airstrip where the German team will fly to their group games.
