Hermann Gerland worked for FC Bayern in various forms for almost 30 years.
After the departure of Hansi Flick, the tiger also stops - and could now follow his ex-boss to the DFB.
Munich / Frankfurt am Main - When the DFB team lost 1-0 to world champions France on Tuesday evening at the start of the European Championship, he was spotted in the stands.
He wasn't really hiding, he was sitting right behind the dugout.
Hansi Flick * is already acting as the “shadow national coach” during the European Football Championship *.
After the tournament he will succeed Joachim Löw, at whose side he became world champion in 2014.
It has not yet been decided who will assist Flick in the future.
FC Bayern: Hermann Gerland as assistant coach from Flick to the DFB?
"Hope is great"
According to
Sport Bild
, Flick is said to
have tried several times to guide Miro Klose to the DFB.
But the world championship record goal scorer no longer wants to be an assistant coach, but is aiming for a head coach post after recovering from illness *.
Another assistant coach from Flick at FC Bayern * would answer immediately if the upcoming national coach called.
"If someone asks me: 'Hermann, do you want to take part?', The answer is clear," says Hermann Gerland * in the
Phrasenmower
podcast
: "
That's normal.
It would be idiotic if I said: 'No, I prefer to watch second division football for some club or do something in the second division or third division' ".
FC Bayern: Klose canceled Flick for a DFB job - Gerland was really up for it
And Gerland would be really up for it too!
“Well, if they would ask me, then there is great hope.
Because I still want to do something ", the" Tiger "continues:" And if I can continue to work with the best players in Germany, then that is something really extraordinary for me. "
So far, however, there has apparently been no contact between the DFB and Gerland.
Marcus Sorg, however, is likely to remain as an assistant coach.
But there should always be a place for the "Tiger" * at Flick's side.
