At Bayern, CEO Oliver Kahn is increasingly the focus of criticism. The Munich team has apparently already found a possible successor: Axel Hellmann from Eintracht Frankfurt.
According to “ran”, it is likely that Oliver Kahn will not be able to convince the supervisory board at the meeting scheduled for May 22 to stay.
Accordingly, Hellmann is the favorite of the legacy of the former goalkeeper. “Sky” even reports that there have already been talks between FC Bayern and the spokesman for the SGE board.
According to “Sport1”, Eintracht Frankfurt has received neither an offer nor a request for Hellmann.
However, Hellmann’s contract with Eintracht Frankfurt has a long-term date of 2027. There has been speculation about a premature departure of the lawyer for some time. A dispute with the boss of the supervisory board, Philipp Holzer, is the basis for the rumours.
Hellmann will head the German Football League (DFL) on an interim basis together with Oliver Leki from Freiburg until the summer. He should flirt with leaving Eintracht and taking over the DFL leadership. FC Bayern may now bring a new opportunity into play.
The rumors of a premature Kahn exit from Bayern Munich, which were circulated by ex-professional and TV expert Jan Aage Fjörtoft, spread like wildfire.
According to the Norwegian, Kahn’s exit is only “a matter of time”. “Bild” had also speculated that the 53-year-old would “vigorate brutally” internally.
Kahn is contractually bound to Bayern until the end of 2024.
May 22 fateful day for Kahn at FC Bayern?
As “Bild” and “Sky” recently reported, Kahn was given time by the supervisory board to turn things around.
A “dismissal in the next four to five weeks” is not planned, the TV station says. The “Bild” is even more specific and names May 22nd as a date on which the supervisory board will decide whether Kahn can continue to fill out his contract, which runs until the end of 2024.
