Munich-bound?...Oliver Bierhoff (Reuters)

Bundesliga club 1860 Munich are considering a summer swoop for AS Monaco's unsettled Germany striker Oliver Bierhoff.

"Bierhoff is a very interesting player and his signing is one of the opportunities we are considering at the moment," revealed 1860 president Karl-Heinz Wildmoser. "I will start negotiations with him in the near future," he added.

Bierhoff, 34, has repeatedly stated that he will not make any comment regarding his future until after the World Cup. However, he is not likely to be adverse to a move back to his homeland, as he has endured a strained relationship with Moncaco coach Didier Deschamps.

It's kind of a moronic move. They already have Augostino, Suker and Max. Not that they're so great, but at least younger and better than Bierhoff. Or maybe they want him to just increase their number of fans, which might lead to the exactly opposite.

Just for the record, they are also interested in Fredi Bobic. Bierhoff and Bobic are both interesting player, said coach Pacult, but he also said that they are too old and HE doesn't want them .

What a master of paradox.

It's more that the predident wants the players, but the coach doesn't want them .

I think Bierhoff will retire after the WC and that would be the best for him!

Rafo ,Suker and Agostino will most likely leave and Max is already 33...so 60 needs new strikers!
But not Olli!:tongue:

Agostino must be a bit of prima donna if he can't fight for a starting place.

There are also rumours about Austrian striker Christian Mayrleb joining 1860.
Pacult denied that though.

it is best for Bierhoff to either retire, move back to Germany or play in the MLS

I'm hoping he will play in the bundesliga for at least one season to say goodbye eventhough the majority of people don't like him

Thats a thing I can´t understand!
Everywhere abroad he gets the respect, he earns, but in Germany he is the most critizized player, although a Jancker or Zickler score less and play not as good as Bierhoff! :frustrat:
