"I think it is a difficult situation, the team is in a phase of change," Heynckes, who led Bayern to the treble including the Champions League in 2013, told reporters at his official presentation on Monday. These are all drawbacks but I think I know how to reach the team, the work I need to do," he added.

The German, who also led Real Madrid to the Champions League title and coached Benfica, Athletic Bilbao and a string of Bundesliga clubs, has not worked since leaving Bayern in 2013.
