FRANKFURT (Reuters) - BMW (DE:BMWG) on Friday denied a media report saying that Klaus Froehlich, board member responsible for research and development, was a potential candidate to succeed embattled Audi (DE:NSUG) Chief Executive Rupert Stadler.
German tabloid Bild reported on Friday that Stadler would leave in April because of his handling of the diesel emissions affair, adding Froehlich was a potential candidate to replace him.
