David Wagner's job at Huddersfield Town is safe - no matter what happens at the end of this season.
Kicker says even should the Terriers be relegated, the manager will be retained.
However, the final decision will be left to the German, who is coveted by clubs in England and Germany.
For their part, Huddersfield are banking on Wagner choosing to stay to complete the 'project' he has been building for the past three years.
The Terriers currently sit in 19th place on the Premier League table.
