Bayern Munich have reportedly 'sounded Rafa Benitez out' about becoming their manager at the end of the season.
Coach Ottmar Hitzfeld is unlikely to remain in the job beyond the summer, despite some heavy spending on the likes of Luca Toni, Miroslav Klose and Franck Ribery, players that have taken Munich to the top of the Bundesliga.
The Daily Mail claims that tensions behind the scenes in Bavaria will mean Hitzfeld - in his second spell in charge of Bayern - will not have his contract renewed beyond the end of this season.
Indeed, Hitzfeld has reportedly told friends he will take over as coach of the Switzerland national side after Euro 2008.
The Mail reports that Bayern have already approached Benitez about taking over in Germany, but that the Liverpool manager is likely to rebuff the approach.
