Boss Heynckes wants Brazilian defender for squad depth
Brazilian defender Breno will not be leaving Bayern Munich this summer, according to new coach Jupp Heynckes.
The 21-year-old struggled to find first-team opportunities last term after recovering from cruciate ligament damage.
And Bayern chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has previously suggested the former Sao Paulo player's days were numbered.
However, 66-year-old Heynckes, who returned to the club last month for his third spell in charge, has Breno in his plans.
"Breno will be staying on, that is for sure," Heynckes told Kicker-Sportmagazin.
"I am hoping he is going to cope with the workload, this would be important as I need to have a good alternative choice in terms of central defence.
"Breno could even play in a full-back position, as soon as he is fully fit."
