Bayern Munich could stick with interim coach Hansi Flick before appointing Mauricio Pochettino at the end of the season, claim&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bild.de/bild-plus/sport/fussball/fussball/fc-bayern-muenchen-die-wahrheit-ueber-mauricio-pochettino-66151008,view=conversionToLogin.bild.html" target="_blank">Bild</a>. That would give Pochettino time to begin learning German, with outgoing president Uli Hoeness of the opinion that this is hugely important. Sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic is thought to be a fan of Pochettino's, and has apparently met him in the past.
