Recently, Bayern honorary president Hoeness said in an interview that they had invited Glasner to coach their team, but Crystal Palace refused to let him go.
Glasner took over from Hodgson as Crystal Palace manager in February this year. He won 7 out of his first 13 games in charge of Crystal Palace, including a 3-0 victory over Burnley in his first game. Crystal Palace went unbeaten in their last 7 games of last season, including victories over Liverpool and Manchester United, finishing 10th in the Premier League.
Glasner’s impressive performance at Crystal Palace attracted Bayern’s attention, and they saw him as a potential replacement for Tuchel. Hoeness also admitted that they had made a great effort to sign Glasner before they finally appointed Kompany. But talksport learned that Crystal Palace valued Glasner at a whopping €100 million (about £84 million) to keep him, which scared Bayern off.
Hoeness said: “We talked to Glasner, and we liked him a lot. He was very keen to coach Bayern, but his club didn’t let him go, and Bayern isn’t omnipotent either.”
