The chairman of the Verdi service union, Frank Werneke, is slated to become a new member of Deutsche Bank's supervisory board.
Werneke is intended for the vacant position and should now be judicially appointed, reports the "Wirtschaftswoche", which cites a Verdi spokesman.
The reports have been confirmed in financial circles.
The union could not be reached for a comment at first.
Berlin - Werneke follows ex-Verdi boss Frank Bsirske, who entered parliament in the federal election for the Greens.
He had therefore withdrawn from the Deutsche Bank Supervisory Board in mid-September.
