Hitzfeld rated Klose's performance as 99 out of 100 as the striker capped a menacing display with a headed equaliser in Bayern's 2-1 friendly win over Sao Paulo here on Sunday.

"Most people know about him, he has a lot of possibilities and a lot of skill. He's also an integral part of the German national squad," enthused Hitzfeld.

"He's very quick, he's very mobile, so I'm pretty sure you can expect a lot from him next season."

Klose was at the heart of Bayern's best moments and also won the free-kick which led to the winning goal by Hamit Altintop, another impressive newcomer.

The two are among nine new players in a 69-million-euro (93-million-dollar) revamp after Bayern's fourth-place Bundesliga finish, their worst performance in more than a decade.

Hitzfeld will link Klose with World Cup-winning striker Luca Toni and French midfielder Franck Ribery as he bids to bounce back quickly and return to the Champions League.

"Bayern Munich's top target is always to win everything we play in. Let's see how it works out," said the coach.

The 20-time German champions have off-loaded seven players including England midfielder Owen Hargreaves, who has completed a reported 34-million-dollar move to Manchester United.
