What will it go through the head of James Rodriguez to hear that Zidane, with whom he did not have good relations with Real Madrid, could reach Bayern Munich?
The Frenchmen Arsene Wenger and Zinedine Zidane are the most commented names on Monday by the German press, which speculates on the upcoming dismissal of Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac, and questions his possible successor.
For the Bild newspaper, the name of Wenger, former coach of Arsenal, 69, "is quoted more and more internally" at Bayern.
Kicker magazine also mentions him as a candidate but says that Zidane, the 46-year-old Real Madrid coach, "is regularly summoned to Bayern".
The German press said that Wenger would present Bayern with the great advantage of speaking German. Zidane would arrive with the prestige of having won three consecutive titles in the Champions League.
For the moment, Kovac, arrived this summer from Frankfurt, is still in charge and prepares the visit of Benfica Tuesday in the Champions League. Bayern deserves a draw to qualify for the second round.
But these last weeks have been disastrous for him. Bayern have not won in the Bundesliga since 27 October (2-1 in Mainz) and have played in their last eight league games with two wins, three draws and three defeats. In the standings, he is fifth to nine points behind leader Borussia Dortmund.
On Saturday night, after a 3-3 draw against Dusseldorf, which was on the table before last, Bayern President Uli Hoeness looked for the first time to distance himself from his coach: "We have to put things right. We have to use the next few days, maybe the next few weeks, to find the right solution, "he answered a question about Kovac's future.
The press says that several players have spoken in the locker room against the maintenance of Kovac after the draw against Dusseldorf.
Hoeness did not deny it, saying only: "We will not make public the internal things (…) The fact is that we are in a bad position and we must all ask ourselves how to get out of this situation".
