Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness reportedly says coach Jupp Heynckes will likely only stay one more year at the club.

Hoeness tells Die Welt newspaper that Bayern will do everything to make sure Heynckes is successful ''and after we'll see. Do we get a new (coach) or not? Most likely we'll get one.''

The 67-year-old Heynckes has a contract with Bayern until June 2013.

Last season, his first of a third spell at Bayern, Heynckes led the team to second place in three competitions - the Champions League, Bundesliga and German Cup.

Hoeness says ''that was a good season.''

Bayern has already signed striker Claudio Pizarro, winger Xherdan Shaqiri, goalkeeper Tom Starke and defender Dante in the offseason.
