VfB Stuttgart's Sebastian Hoeneß Squashes Bayern Coaching Rumors, Sets Sights on Southern Summit Victory
Despite his stellar performance as VfB Stuttgart's head coach, Sebastian Hoeneß has firmly dismissed any potential interest in a future coaching role at FC Bayern Munich. The 41-year-old, who leads the Swabians in the upcoming Saturday night Bundesliga match against Bayern (19:30/DAZN), shares that the possibility of coaching the Bavarian giants never crossed his mind, even amidst the high-stakes match-up in Munich.
"Not even for a second" did Hoeneß entertain the thought of joining the world-renowned Bayern, asserting that "I'm with VfB Stuttgart" [Source]. The Swabians' gaffer clarified that his primary concern preceding the southern summit is securing a solid team performance and clinching crucial points.
As the Bundesliga table shows, third-place VfB Stuttgart is just a single point behind Bayern Munich, making their visit to the Allianz Arena a pivotal opportunity to leapfrog the Bavarian giants. The Swabians' recent success against Leverkusen, which culminated in a 1-1 draw, reignited their hopes of challenging the soccer league's leaders, Bayer Leverkusen.
Although caution is required when playing in Munich, Hoeneß is upbeat about his team's chances, citing their immense self-confidence and positive momentum as derived from their latest performances.
Unfortunately, the health of VfB Stuttgart's captain, Waldemar Anton, who has been suffering from a cold in recent days, remains uncertain. "Things are moving in the right direction, but we'll have to wait and see how it goes," shared Hoeneß [Source]. Despite the uncertainty surrounding Anton, the Swabians' spirit remains unbroken as they head to Munich, armed with the resolve to deliver a brave and unyielding performance.
