Bayern deal ends talk of Liverpool move

 

Jurgen Klinsmann will take over as coach of Bayern Munich next season, the club have announced.

 

Bayern have turned to Klinsmann after Ottmar Hitzfeld revealed he would be stepping down as the club's manager at the end of the season.

 

Klinsmann spent two successful years at Bayern during his illustrious playing career, helping them win the Uefa Cup and Bundesliga.

 

The former Tottenham striker has been out of work since quitting as Germany coach at the end of the 2006 World Cup.

 

"Former Germany coach Jurgen Klinsmann will take over on 1st July, 2008," said a statement on the club's official website.

 

The news ends speculation linking Klinsmann with a possible move to Liverpool as a replacement for Rafa Benitez.

Just saw some bits from the press conference. They already secretly contacted him before Christmas without any word getting to the press.

 

Sounds like the dreaded P word to me.

 

Hippopotamus? (with a silent p)
