Bayern Munich are interested in signing Stuttgart striker Mario Gomez, Bayern manager Uli Hoeness said.

"We will strengthen the team step by step. Mario Gomez is a player who is very interesting for us," Hoeness told Premiere Television.

The 23-year-old Germany international, who has been a Bayern target in the past and scored against them on Saturday, has enjoyed an outstanding season scoring 24 goals to help Stuttgart clinch third place.

Bayern beat Stuttgart 2-1 to finish second in the Bundesliga after Wolfsburg held on to top spot with a 5-1 win over Werder Bremen.

Bayern will lose second-choice striker Lukas Podolski to Cologne in the summer, while Luca Toni has been criticised for missing chances this season and Miroslav Klose is currently injured.

  1. I think we will see the demise of Bayern. The club has­ peaked and no matter how much money they invest in­ their players they will begin to see the club slip­ further and further away from the top. Other clubs are­ becoming stronger and the Bayern era is past.
