Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has offered Thomas Muller a job for life at the record German champions.
Muller has been linked with a move to Manchester United but Rummenigge does not ever expect the Germany international to want to leave the Bavarian club and has therefore offered him a position after he hangs up his boots.
"I get the feeling that Thomas will never leave FC Bayern," Rummenigge told Sport Bild magazine.

There had been fears that Muller might follow Bastian Schweinsteiger to United for a reported 100 million euro, but Rummenigge said last week that he is not entertaining that idea, adding that the 25-year-old forward is priceless.
Bayern have already signed midfield cover for Schweinsteiger by signing Arturo Vidal from Juventus on Wednesday.
