It’s a file that never ends. At the end of February 2024 and following a series of poor results, Thomas Tuchel announced his departure from Bayern Munich at the end of the 2023-2024 season. And since then, it has been a real project on which Max Eberl, the Bavarian sports director, and his teams have been working to replace him. Around twenty names have been mentioned to succeed Thomas Tuchel, but nothing has really been concrete until now and Bayern Munich has kept coming back.

An abnormal situation for this European leader. As a result, boards of directors are multiplying on the other side of the Rhine and a preposterous idea has arisen in the minds of Bavarian leaders. Indeed, according to Bild, convincing Thomas Tuchel to stay in his post is not an option ruled out at the moment. Especially since Thomas Tuchel did not officially say goodbye during the last home match of the season, against Wolfsburg (2-0).

The locker room supports Thomas Tuchel

And Bayern Munich has the weapons to convince the ex-Parisian manager to stay. Sky Sports Germany adds that Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller have even made representations to the Bavarian board of directors to campaign in this direction. In addition, there are also other supporters like Leroy Sané, Harry Kane, Eric Dier and Jamal Musiala, who appreciate their coach. Tuchel’s assistant coaches Zsolt Löw, Arno Michels and especially Anthony Barry would also be very popular with the majority of the dressing room.

An about-face like Xavi Hernández in Catalonia is therefore not an option to be ruled out at the Allianz Arena. But Bayern Munich still keeps the main idea of ​​finding a replacement for Thomas Tuchel. However, the latest major prospect, Hansi Flick, will not be coach of Bayern Munich, according to the German media. Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi and Manchester United’s Erik ten Hag are still on the shortlist, but nothing is concrete yet.
