Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick has confirmed that he will seek to leave the club at the end of the season.
The 56-year-old manager has been linked with the German national team post, which is likely to become available when Jogi Low leaves the position after Euro 2020. He was previously the assistant coach of the national team between 2006 and 2014.
Flick joined Bayern as assistant manager to Niko Kovac for the start of the 2019 season but was promoted to interim manager when Kovac left in November the same year.
He was made permanent manager in April 2020 and secured that season’s Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and Champions League trophies and secured the following season’s UEFA Super Club World Cup. His contract is set to run until 2023.
Bayern is currently seven points clear at the top of the Bundesliga but was knocked out of the Champions League quarter-finals by Paris Saint-Germain last week.
