Thomas Tuchel has proven himself to be one of the best managers in modern football, with his tactical ability being one of the best in the world. His incredible knowledge of the game has landed him gigs with the biggest clubs in the world, including PSG, Chelsea, and now Bayern Munich, although things seemed not to be going well for him at the time.
Despite starting the season strongly, Tuchel’s team has faded in recent weeks, losing back-to-back games in the league and the UEFA Champions League, leading to speculations of his exit from the club sooner or later despite the public backing of the club’s hierarchy, including the new CEO.
When will Thomas Tuchel leave Bayern?
Thomas Tuchel appears to be nearing the end of his Bayern Munich career, as a run of poor results has left his relationship with the club strained, and reports now suggest he could be relieved of his duties at the end of this current season.
Undoubtedly, Thomas Tuchel remains one of the best managers in modern football, and the fact that he last won Europe’s most valuable trophy less than three years ago speaks volumes about his ability to lead teams to glory, which is why Bayern Munich handed him a clean slate in the first place after he was sacked by Chelsea a few months into the new season, albeit unfairly.
A little over a year after taking up the Bayern job, things are now beginning to look shaky for the German coach, with his team losing back-to-back games against Bayer Leverkusen and Vfl Bochum in the league and SS Lazio in the UEFA Champions League. Tuchel has now confirmed he will be leaving the club at the end of the season with his coaching staff.
“We have agreed that we will end our collaboration after the end of the season. Until then, my coaching staff and I will continue to do everything we can to ensure maximum success for FC Bayern,” the UCL-winning manager with Chelsea said.
Bayern Munich are now on the hunt for a new manager, with reports linking several big names like Zinedine Zidane, Hansi Flick, and Xabi Alonso to the job.
Which Bayern players reportedly revolted against Tuchel?
Thomas Tuchel’s Bayer Munich spell will officially be over at the end of the season, and the poor results are not the only reason the former Chelsea and PSG manager will be stepping down at the German club.
Reports claim that the German has lost the dressing room, with as many as six senior players revolting against him, including Thomas Muller, the longest-serving player in the team. The other names involved in the alleged revolt are Joshua Kimmich, Serge Gnabry, Matthijs De Ligt, Leon Goretzka, and Mathys Tel.
The players seem to have won, as Thomas Tuchel himself confirmed he would be leaving the club at the end of the season, but he must do all he can to help save the bad season the Bavarians are having.
