Flick confirms Kahn talks as Effenberg predicts coach's departure would be 'fatal' for Bayern Munich

The German coach's future remains in doubt with continued speculation over a summer exit

Hansi Flick has confirmed he held talks with Oliver Khan amid reports he could leave Bayern Munich this summer, with Stefan Effenberg warning his departure would be “fatal” for the Bavarian giants.

Flick’s position has been placed in some doubt amid reports of a disagreement with sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

The imminent vacancy with the German national team has further fuelled the uncertainty, with Flick rumoured to be in contention to succeed Joachim Low when he steps down after the European Championship.
