| Otto Rehhagel (German: ; born 9 August 1938) is a German former football coach and player.
Rehhagel is one of only two people who, as player and manager combined, has participated in over 1,000 Bundesliga matches (the other being Jupp Heynckes). In the Bundesliga, he holds the records for the most wins (387), most draws (205), most losses (228), and his teams scored the most goals (1,473) and conceded more (1,142) than any other. He served as the head coach of Werder Bremen between 1981 and 1995, winning the Bundesliga twice and in the Cup Winners' Cup in 1992, the club's only continental title so far. After a rather unsuccessful intermezzo at Bayern Munich, he sensationally won the Bundesliga with the promoted team 1. FC Kaiserslautern in 1998.
Internationally, Rehhagel coached Greece from 2001 to 2010 in their most successful footballing era—during that period, Greece unexpectedly won the 2004 European Championship and qualified for the 2010 World Cup, their only second World Cup finals appearance. A 2022 critically acclaimed film entitled King Otto was made on Rehhagel's triumph with the Greece national team in the 2004 European Championship.
