Rainer Bonhof did not call his friend Jupp Heynckes on Thursday to congratulate him. He wanted to wait for official confirmation. “And n you don’t even know wher to congratulate Jupp on new coaching or to express his condolences,” said Bonhof with his typically dry humour. “To plunge into hot Bundesliga business at FC Bayern with 72 again, that’s not so easy.” Bonhof is 65, seven years younger than Heynckes. He wouldn’t do any more of that stress.

As old as Bonhof is Peter Hermann. The former co-coach of Heynckes in Munich is currently assistant to Friedhelm Sparkle, 63, at second-table guide Fortuna Düsseldorf. Hermann is now unexpectedly playing a key role in question of wher Heynckes returns to FC Bayern, because Heynckes wants to take Hermann with him. This is a bad for Düsseldorf.

A fish called Philipp o Jupp Heynckes looked like hardly any or coach people behind his players, his relationship with FC Bayern was always a special one. He now confirms talks with club and says he is “fit”. By Lisa Saturday more…

Fortuna’s managing director Robert Schäfer, a former manager at TSV 1860 München, has already referred strictly to his contract. This is valid until 2018 and would only be terminated against a larger sum. This is likely to be highest redemption ever paid for an assistant in German football.

Bonhof and Heynckes, who played from 1970 to 1978 toger for Gladbach and were four times champions, once Cup winners and once UEFA Cup winners, regularly chat with each or about football. But how could you have guessed that time would haggled over detachment for a 65 year old co-trainer? Bonhof and Heynckes discuss yes preferably about Gladbach and general developments: “Football has not changed so much since n,” says Bonhof, “y only use or terms today.” There is a bit of scepticism and question of wher young trainers really do anything better today.

Bavaria could change from oldest to youngest league coach

In any case, Bonhof has no worries that his friend Jupp still can everything that is needed in modern football: “There is no ‘ too old ‘ or ‘ too young ‘ in football-re is only good or bad.” And he knows exactly where he has to classify Heynckes: “Of course Bavarians would do a good grip.”

Video emergency call to good old time Jupp Heynckes will again be a coach at FC Bayern. This sounds like a message from a time loop, but can solve many problems in Munich in short term. by Martin Schneider More…

With interest, Bonhof would n look at summer 2018, as story continues in Munich, because it could happen that FC Bayern changes from oldest league coach (Heynckes, n 73) to youngest (Hoffenheims Julian Nagelsmann, n still 30).

This volte considers industry to be conceivable because Nagelsmann is already considered a finished trainer. However, at Bayern, y emphasise fact that Heynckes ‘ obligation is not a measure to prepare only this scenario. The next summer is all conceivable. Maybe even that Heynckes stays longer? Unlikely. Bonhof would be baff. He was already surprised that Heynckes wanted to do a fourth time for FC Hollywood: “He has achieved everything, won triple four years ago.” Out of despair pensioner would Heynckes, because Bonhof is safe, not to be pledged.
