Bayern Munich on Sunday confirmed interim boss Hansi Flick will remain head coach “until at least” the end of the season after winning eight of his 10 games in charge.
“FC Bayern and Hansi Flick have agreed” that he “will remain head coach... at least until the end of the current season,” the club said in a statement.
“A continuation of Hansi Flick as head coach beyond that is a conceivable option for FC Bayern.”
The 54-year-old, an assistant with the Germany team that won the 2014 World Cup, took charge after Niko Kovac was sacked in early November.
“FC Bayern is very satisfied with the work of Hansi Flick,” said club chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
“I am convinced that FC Bayern will continue next year where it left off in the last few games, namely playing attractive and successful football.”
“I am happy that FC Bayern continue to place their trust in me as head coach,” said Flick.
“I really enjoy working with the team and the coaching staff.
“Now we’re recharging the batteries again and then we will try to bring as many victories and titles to Munich as possible.”
