After parting ways with Niko Kovač, Bayern Munich initially appointed Hans-Dieter Flick as interim manager and then confirmed his stay at the club until the end of the season.
The 55-year-old has so far managed 20 matches for the Bavarian club, with 17 wins and only two defeats. During these matches, Bayern scored 65 goals and conceded only 14 in the process.
Bayern registered a comfortable 3-0 win over Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League knockout tie at Stamford Bridge last month.
After the European tie, Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge hinted Flick could be retained beyond this season.
Kicker claims the Bundesliga club’s supervisory board met on Monday and extending Flick’s stay was advised during the meeting. However, nothing has been finalised and even the man himself hasn’t provided any concrete indication about his future.
If Bayern were to extend his stay, the magazine claims Flick wants a good duration of contract and wages clarified. He’s also keen to make sure he gets the backroom staff he requires, and a good summer budget.
At the end of the report, Kicker states ‘concrete enquiries’ from the Premier League have reached his camp.
There’s no mention which English club(s) have considered appointing the current Bayern boss as their next manager.
There’s the possibility interest from the Premier League is being pushed to help Flick get what he wants from Bayern.
