Bayern coach Niko Kovac’s future has been the subject of speculation, and when asked by Kicker if he would be open to going back to the Bundesliga giants, Ten Hag said: “I do not exclude anything.”

“But I’m almost 50 and [I am] not a dreamer. It comes – or it does not come.”

Asked to comment on his time in Munich, Ten Hag added: “For me, it was about coming to an association like Bayern.

“Pep Guardiola was there, and more importantly, [sporting director] Matthias Sammer with his strategic approach and mentality, which he brings to a club.

“Under Guardiola, Bayern played dominant [football] … everyone on the pitch knew what he had to do.”
