Wolfsburg interested in Bayern Munich striker Ivica Olic - report
The Croatia international is eager to leave FCB because of his lack of first-team action and a move to the Volkswagen Arena could be on the cards
By Stefan Coerts
Wolfsburg are keen to secure the services of Bayern Munich forward Ivica Olic in the January transfer window, according to Bild.
The 2009 Bundesliga champions are eager to add some more firepower to their attack and head coach Felix Magath sees Olic as the perfect signing.
The Croatia international recently told Goal.com that he could be forced to leave the Bavarian club if he doesn't receive more playing time.
However, Wolfsburg could have a tough time luring Olic away from the Allianz Arena as the 32-year-old is Bayern's only proven alternative to first-choice striker Mario Gomez.
Bayern could allow Olic to leave if they find a suitable replacement and they have already been linked with Freiburg striker Papiss Cisse.
However, Bayern president Uli Hoeness said earlier this week that the club are not planning to make any January transfers, and it's unlikely that they will make a move for Cisse following the 59-year-old's comments.
