Coaching career
VfB Stuttgart
Markus Babbel became assistant coach at VfB Stuttgart after the end of his career as a player . From July 1, 2007 to November 22, 2008 he was Armin Veh's assistant trainer . After his release on November 23, 2008, Babbel was promoted to team boss at VfB Stuttgart. Due to the lack of a football instructor license, Babbel would only have been allowed to train the team with a special permit limited to June 30, 2009, but due to a reform of the coaching course by the DFB, Babbel was also allowed to supervise VfB beyond that.
On May 6, 2009 Babbel signed a contract dated until the end of June 2011 as head coach at VfB Stuttgart .
Under Babbel's leadership, VfB played the second-best second half of all teams in the 2008/09 season and had a chance of winning the championship until the last matchday. At the end of the season, the club occupied third place in the table, which entitles them to participate in the qualifying games for the 2009/10 UEFA Champions League .
After just two wins from the first 15 games of the 2009/10 season and one win in five Champions League games, Babbel was given leave of absence on December 6, 2009 in Stuttgart. His successor was the Swiss coach Christian Gross , who had previously coached FC Basel . Babbel's critical reflection on the football business in connection with his leave of absence was praised by many commentators as accurate and accurate.
In April 2010, Babbel obtained the football teacher diploma at the Hennes-Weisweiler Academy of the German Sport University Cologne.
Hertha BSC
For the 2010/11 season Babbel was coach at Hertha BSC in the 2nd Bundesliga. The contract was extended on April 25, 2011 due to promotion to the Bundesliga according to a clause until 2012. Three game days before the end of the season, Hertha could no longer be displaced by a direct promotion place with twelve points ahead of third place in the table.
In the first half of 2011, the club under Babbel ranked in the middle of the table.
Markus Babbel planned to quit his job at Hertha BSC at the end of the season. According to his own statement , he had informed manager Michael Preetz about this at the beginning of November. However, he stressed that he had never had such a conversation with Babbel and described Babbel's statement as "simply wrong". Thereupon Hertha President Werner Gegenbauer accused Babbel of lying (quote: “Now you shouldn't come up with Baron Münchhausen stories”). In his opinion, people had only known about it since December 13th. The next day, Babbel was given immediate leave. On December 22, 2011, Hertha BSC announced that the dispute with Babbel had been resolved.
TSG 1899 Hoffenheim
On February 10, 2012, Babbel became the new head coach at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim . He signed a contract until 2014. From March to September 2012 he was also the club's manager.

On February 12, 2016, Babbel prematurely extended his contract by two years until the end of June 2018.
