Wenger in talks with Bayern

BERLIN - Arsene Wenger is reportedly in talks with Bayern Munich to potentially become its new head coach while Ralf Rangnick, another possible candidate, is said to not be interested.

Wenger, 70, gave an evasive answer when broadcaster beIn Sports directly asked him about working at Bayern, which fired Niko Kovac on Sunday in the wake of a 5-1 drubbing at Eintracht Frankfurt.

According to German daily Bild, talks have taken place between Wenger and Bayern, with club chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge leading the search to find Kovac's replacement.
