    He won his first game in charge – against his former club Borussia Dortmund – but the Reds have since dropped down to second in the Bundesliga table AND crashed out of the Champions League as well as the DFB-Pokal.
    And now he is at risk of losing his job just weeks after joining the club, according to Hamann.
    The former Liverpool and Manchester City midfielder told German outlet Ruhr Nachrichten: “The leadership may be confused, but the coach also makes a very confused impression in his four weeks so far.
    “If he also gambles away the championship, it’s clear that his position would already be weakened.”

    Hamann also claimed that the Bundesliga title is Borussia Dortmund’s to lose.
    He added: “Now they have it in their own hands and should not give up the lead in the standings.
    “I can well imagine them winning the last five games.”
    Dortmund currently sit at the top of the Bundesliga table, one point above Bayern Munich, following Saturday’s 4-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.

    Harry Kane is ‘too old and expensive’ for Bayern Munich claims club legend in boost to Man Utd transfer hopes

    HARRY KANE is “too old and expensive”, according to Bayern Munich club legend Lothar Matthaus.The England striker’s future is already the talk of the next transfer window with just over a year left on his contract.

    Bayern Munich and Manchester United are believed to be the frontrunners for the Tottenham star.
    But the German giants have been urged to swerve Kane by one of their former players.
    Matthaus, who won the league five times in his two spells in Bavaria, believes Kane is not worth the cost at the age of 29 and prefers 24-year-old Victor Osimhen of Napoli.
    He also believes that Spurs’ record top scorer, who will likely command a fee north of £100m, is too expensive.

    Writing for Sky Deutschland, the 62-year-old said: “I’m excited to see if a new striker comes along.
    “Everyone is talking about Victor Osimhen for his sensational performance at Napoli. You never know if he can do that in Munich, but I think he would be a good fit.
    “Randal Kolo Muani may need a little more room and space than a Bayern striker usually has, but he’s also good in the box and could work in Munich. Harry Kane would be too old and too expensive for me.
    “The price-performance ratio could speak for [Werder Bremen striker] Niclas Füllkrug. He would probably be available for €20-25 million [£17.6m-£22m] and score 25 goals in Munich.”

    If Kane does not sign a new contract at Spurs, he would be available for free in the summer of 2024.
    This has sparked speculation on his future and could give Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy a decision to make this summer.
    Reports last month suggested that United have even received a boost due to Spurs reported interest in their goalkeeper Dean Henderson. More
