Rummenigge admits Xabi 'interesting future coach for Bayern Munich'

Bayern Munich chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge admits they want to bring Xabi Alonso back to the club.

Xabi is currently coach of Real Sociedad B and is being monitored closely by Bayern, where he enjoyed great success under former coach Pep Guardiola.

“I think Xabi Alonso will be an interesting coach for Bayern at some point in the future," Rummenigge told BILD.

"He's a great guy, a smart guy. Xabi has that empathy that you need especially with today's generation of players."

Xabi is in his second season in charge of Real Sociedad B, having narrowly missed out on promotion to the Segunda Division last season.
