Germany legend Miroslav Klose has been backed to become a manager by former Bayern Munich team-mate Martin Demichelis.
Klose, the top scorer in World Cup history with 16 goals, retired from playing in 2016 after a productive five-year spell in Serie A with Lazio. In all, Klose finished his career with 231 goals in 599 games at club level, and 71 goals in 137 games for Germany – another all-time record.
Now, he is the coach of Bayern’s under-17 side, while former Manchester City defender Demichelis is in charge of the under-19s.
