Jupp Heynckes has suggested that he is yet to decide whether to accept an offer to manage Bayern Munich for a fourth time in his career.

Last week, Carlo Ancelotti was removed from his position as boss of the Bundesliga outfit after a poor start to the campaign, and it led to the likes of Thomas Tuchel, Julian Nagelsmann, Louis van Gaal and Luis Enrique all being linked with a switch to the Allianz Arena.

However, reports emerged on Thursday that Heynckes - who last managed Bayern in 2013 - had been offered the chance to return to the club, and the veteran has confirmed that the speculation is true.

The 72-year-old told RPOnline: "It's not clear yet or signed. I have to analyse the whole thing first. Four and a half years have passed since I left Bavaria, and football has changed."

Heynckes ended his last reign at Bayern by guiding the club to the Champions League with victory over rivals Borussia Dortmund.
