Full Report:
Germany have sounded out Arsenal's French manager manager Arsene Wenger about taking over from Rudi Voeller as national coach.
The 54-year-old Gunners manager, whose contract at Highbury runs to 2006, was surprised but non-commital, said the Abendblatt daily.
Franz Beckenbauer, head of Germany's World Cup organisimg committee, has already proposed Wenger and Dutch coach Guus Hiddink as the men to lead Germany to the 2006 World Cup.
Hiddink led unfancied South Korea to the 2002 World Cup semi-finals four years after leading Holland to the 1998 World Cup semis.
He is currently coach at PSV Eindhoven.
Both men speak German.
Greece have already warned Germany about trying to poach their German coach Otto Rehhagel after he led them to their Euro 2004 triumph.
This look very unlikely to happen...
