Bayern Munich, the reigning champions of Germany and one of the most successful football clubs in the world, is reportedly considering sacking their current manager, Julian Nagelsmann. This news has sent shockwaves through the football community, with many wondering who will take over the hot seat if Nagelsmann is indeed dismissed. The current favorite for the job is former Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel as reported by Italian football journalist named Fabrizio Romano via his latest Instagram post which he made on Thursday night, 23rd March.
Nagelsmann was appointed as the manager of Bayern Munich last summer, after a successful stint with RB Leipzig. However, the team’s performances this season have not been up to their usual high standards. Bayern currently sit in second place in the Bundesliga, behind their arch-rivals Borussia Dortmund. They were also knocked out of the German Cup by lower-league side Holstein Kiel, and their Champions League campaign was ended by Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals.
According to reports, Bayern Munich’s hierarchy is not happy with Nagelsmann’s tactical approach and his inability to get the best out of his players. They believe that the team should be performing better than they currently are, given the quality of the squad.
