Former Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund coach Ottmar Hitzfeld expects to see Jurgen Klopp one day in the dugout at the Allianz Arena. 

Klopp, currently in charge of Premier League giants Liverpool, has often been linked with being a contender to take over at Bayern Munich.




Hitzfeld is a firm fan of the former Borussia Dortmund coach and believes his name must always be in the mix when Bayern Munich are considering a new coach.

The 68-year-old, who led the Bavarians to success in the Champions League in 2001, is confident that one day Klopp will be Bayern Munich coach.
 


"Jurgen Klopp always belongs to the list of candidates for Bayern", Hitzfeld told t-online.de.

"He knows the Bundesliga and has won the league and the cup.

"I think and I expect him to be Bayern Munich coach."

Klopp got the better of Bayern Munich twice in the Bundesliga when he led Dortmund to the title in the 2010/11 and 2011/12 campaigns.

Still just 50 years old, Klopp took charge at Liverpool in October 2015 and is already established as a hugely respected figure amongst the club's fan base.
