Bayern Munich fear that Mario Gotze has set his heart on linking up again with Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.

The German international midfielder, who emerged under Klopp at Borussia Dortmund, believes that his former boss can help him reignite a career that has stalled at Bayern Munich.

Gotze has fallen out of favour with Pep Guardiola and is looking for a fresh start despite the fact that Carlo Ancelotti will take charge of the Bavarian giants in the summer.

Gotze played his best football under Klopp and is open to a move to Anfield.

And Klopp would love to add the man who scored the winning goal in the 2014 World Cup final to his Kop squad.

Gotze is heading towards the final 12 months of his contract and is not prepared to sign an extension.

Bayern will want to recoup most of the £30million they paid Dortmund for the 23-year-old in 2013.
