Joachim Loew has won the World Cup with Germany as a coach

At present, Real Madrid couldn't ask for a better coach than a World Cup-winning manager. Joachim Loew's stellar resume as the coach of German national team hasn't gone unnoticed.

Let's have a look at his history in club management. VfB Stuttgart is probably the only well-known club he has managed before stepping up as the national team coach. But, will that cause a problem for the German should he put pen to paper at the Bernabeu?

Certainly not. When it comes to the national team, the magnitude of egos is much greater. Secondly, unlike the club manager, a national coach works with the squad after a gap of months and has lesser time for experimenting with tactics; something that makes the international management more tedious than it seems to be.

Also, an international manager has no transfer market available to strengthen his squad.

Considering the aforementioned nuances, Löw has done a great job with winning a World Cup, a Confederations Cup and securing a runner-up medal in the 2008 Euro.

If Loew can achieve silverware despite the cons of international management, coaching a club won't be that difficult, will it? At Real, he will be monitoring players day in day out; something he hasn't been able to do with the German side.

Madrid have always followed his style of free-flowing and counter-attacking football, which becomes another reason why Perez should sign him.

Real Madrid will, of course, be a big challenge considering his absence from club management for a decade. But, Joachim Löw can definitely weave his magic at the Bernabeu, considering the flexibility he will be offered in the role of a club manager.
