Hoeness: Niko Kovac will still be our coach next season

Niko Kovac will stay as Bayern coach, says club president Uli Hoeness.
Bayern München president Uli Hoeness has made it clear that Niko Kovac will stay as coach next season.

Kovac's job security has been questioned during the 2018/19 season, but in the wake of Bayern's Bundesliga title win and DFB-Pokal final victory, Hoeness says the 47-year-old will definitely stay.

"There's no question that our coach next season will be Niko Kovac," Hoeness told Sky and added:

"It's not possible for a team to play so well if things aren't working with the coach."

Kovac joined Bayern München from Eintracht Frankfurt ahead of the 2018/19 season.
