Marco Rose is close friends with Munich's sports director Max Eberl, who is currently looking for a coach. Rose's contract in Leipzig only runs for one more year.

Marco Rose has reacted with amusement to FC Bayern Munich's search for a coach, but has nevertheless expressed optimism about a successful outcome. The RB Leipzig coach was confronted on Thursday with the question of how he would react if his close friend and Bayern sporting director Max Eberl called. "When Max calls, I always answer," said Rose. "Then I ask him how things are going, how things are at Tegernsee, how things are going, wish him all the best and hope that we meet again soon."

Rose himself does not see himself as a candidate for the record champions following Ralf Rangnick's rejection. "I think FC Bayern will manage quite well without Marco Rose," said the 47-year-old. "Sometimes situations arise in soccer that are a bit tricky and tricky. The market in which we are talking about FC Bayern is not that simple. Nevertheless, I am sure that a good solution will be found."

Rose's contract at RB Leipzig only runs until the end of June 2025. However, the Leipzig man is expected to extend his contract in the near future. It is possible that this will happen before the end of the season. Leipzig qualified for the Champions League on Wednesday evening, meaning Rose has achieved the most important goal of the season.
