Dortmund (dpa) - Despite all denials by Borussia Dortmund, sky expert Lothar Matthäus continues to believe that Lucien Favre will say goodbye to the Bundesliga soccer team at the end of the season.

"If I look at his reaction after the game again, I will stick to my original impulse. I don't think Favre will be on BVB next season. The statement, 'I'll get to that in a few weeks speak ', I continue to interpret it as simmering in him, "wrote Matthäus in his Sky column.

"But I think Favre is a totally consistent person if he is convinced that a path is over. And my feeling tells me that this point has now been reached for him in Dortmund," added Matthäus . The former international had started speculation about a farewell to Favre after the Dortmund 0-1 win over FC Bayern last week and brought Niko Kovac into play.

The Dortmunders then rejected the speculation. Favre described the Matthew statements in the "image" as "incredible" and "unacceptable".

For Matthäus, Kovac is still a realistic option at BVB. "It is known that the Dortmunders tried to talk to Niko in the winter. I can only speculate whether they would have acted immediately if Niko had agreed or whether they wanted to sound out his general interest in a commitment to the future," wrote Matthäus , who appreciates the former Bayern coach: "Although he is only 48 years old, he already has a lot of experience as a coach. He has coached Croatia, Frankfurt and Bayern. And he already has a lot to show for himself."
