Jurgen Klinsmann will take over as coach of Bayern Munich from next season.

The former Germany boss will take over from Ottmar Hitzfeld, who is set to step down from the post at the end of the current campaign.

A statement on Bayern's official website:, read: 'Former Germany boss Jurgen Klinsmann will succeed Ottmar Hitzfeld as Bayern head coach on July 1, 2008.'

The appointment marks Klinsmann's first foray into club coaching after he guided host nation Germany to third place in the 2006 World Cup.

The 43-year-old won 108 caps for his country and was captain for the successful Euro 96 campaign.

Klinsmann enjoyed a successful stint with Bayern between 1995 and 1997, winning UEFA Cup and Bundesliga honours.

The club have announced a press conference for 4pm local time on Friday.

I really don't see Klinsmann doing a better job than Hitzfeld. In fact, I will go as far to say that Hitzfeld has gotten a raw deal this stint as Bayern manager. He's been constantly having to fund with management and it seems to be affecting his decisions at times on the pitch.

Big mistake in my opinion.
