Bayern Munich are chasing Middlesbrough goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer.
The People says the German giants are looking for a new keeper as Oliver Kahn, 37, prepares to hang up his gloves.

Australian Schwarzer, 34, has been a Boro stalwart for years but a change of scenery and a glamour move would have its appeal - especially as he has German connections from his time with Dynamo Dresden and Kaiserslautern before his move to Bradford in November 1996.

Looks like bullshit for me. Bayern wouldn't go for any a 34 year old keeper.

Schwarzer ?

Mate, don't trust tribalfootball, that site is full of crap.

^ Indeed.

Bayern Munich president Franz Beckenbauer has dismissed suggestions Getafe boss Bernd Schuster could take the reins at the Bundesliga champions.

Ottmar Hitzfeld took over as interim manager at Bayern after the sacking of Felix Magath, though insisted he would only remain at the club until the end of the season, and it has been rumoured Schuster could take over in the summer.

Schuster has been hailed for his achievements with Liga side Getafe, though it appears the modest size of the club could stand against him as Bayern bosses search for a new coach.

“His club Getafe is hardly the centre of the world,” Beckenbauer told German broadcaster Premiere.

The ‘Kaiser' had praised Schuster after Getafe's 3-0 win over Valencia the weekend before last, though he insisted “that had nothing to do with Bayern.”

Schuster has already admitted his interest in the Bayern job, though said:

“You have to wait until the time is right. But one thing is clear: I would be very happy to come back to Germany.”

Yeah, as I said, not sure if he has enough experience to coach Bayern.

Bayern Munich seem set to renew their interest in World Cup winner Mauro Camoranesi, according to reports in the Italian press.

The Juventus midfielder had been linked with a transfer to the Bundesliga last summer, but decided to stay in Turin, despite the fact that his club were forced to play in Serie B following their involvement in a corruption scandal.

The German giants are still hoping to fill the void left by Michael Ballack’s transfer to Chelsea and with Sebastian Deisler being forced to end his career and Mehmet Scholl ready to retire next summer, a couple of fresh faces are expected to arrive for the new season.

Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Juve are ready to swap Camoranesi for Bayern’s Brazilian defender Lucio and although the Germans are highly unlikely to accept such a deal, Bayern could be tempted to table a bid for the 30-year-old.

The Argentine-born midfielder, who had also been linked with the likes of Lyon, Valencia and Inter, is tied to Juventus until 2009.

I don't really like him.. I hope those reports are not true.

[D-Kin]

Well it looks like he's leaving in the summer, a lot of teams will be interested.

[Oliver_Kahn]

I'm not a big fan of him either, but if he isn't very expensive, he might be good.

We need wingers

[D-Kin]

He's better than people give him credit for, he's very gifted technically.

[Oliver_Kahn]

I know he has great technique, but he doesn't work for the team and he isn't very pacy.

I would take Altintop over Camo

[D-Kin]

Well put it this way, I'd like to see him stay with Juventus.

[Oliver_Kahn]

He doesn't want to renew his contract or Juve don't want to do it ?
