Despite Heynckes' announcement, Bayern insiders report about the club leaders' ongoing attempt to convince their first choice to stay longer. According to reports, Hoeness and head of board Karl-Heinz Rummenigge are still optimistic about their chances of success with their sweet talking.

Current squad members praise Heynckes after 15 victories in 16 games.

"Bayern and I discuss all sorts of things including the new coach. I am sure my opinion counts," Heynckes said. Heynckes called the future of Ribery and Robben a case for the new coach.

While German national coach Joachim Loew is not available, Hoffenheim coach Julian Nagelsmann announced to obey orders from club owner Dietmar Hopp to stay at least until 2019. Next to Bayern Borussia Dortmund was rumored to be interested for next summer.

Leipzig coach Ralph Hasenhuettl told German media he regards himself as not experienced enough to take over a famous club like Bayern. "I will need more experience to address the needs of a club of that quality," the Austrian emphasized. Hasenhuettl announced he is considering extending his contract with the East-Germans.

Eintracht Frankfurt Sports Director Fredi Bobic said current Frankfurt coach Nico Kovac is going to stay as he is pleased with his job. Kovac media manager and former Bayern Munich media director Markus Hoerwick noted Bayern is still a size too big and an in-between step for his client is inevitable before coaching a top side.
