Former Bayern Munich coach Ottmar Hitzfeld expects Pep Guardiola to remain in charge next season.
Guardiola, whose contract runs to 2016, has been linked with Manchester City.
"I rather think that he will extend his contract. At Bayern, he has all the opportunities to develop his philosophy," Hitzfeld told Bild am Sonntag.
"I had seen a small risk that he goes if he had already won everything."
Bayern president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge also remarked yesterday: "He knows my opinion: I wish that he stays."
