Thomas Tuchel is being suggested as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.
Tuchel, who left Chelsea in 2022, could make a remarkable return to the Premier League.
The future of ten Hag at United seems uncertain, as Sir Jim Ratcliffe and others are calling for significant improvements in the team’s league position. Currently, they are 12 points behind Liverpool, and their chances of finishing in the top four are slim due to their poor performance in the English top-flight.
Meanwhile, in Germany, there are problems at the Allianz Arena. Bayern Munich’s top management is reportedly unhappy with Tuchel’s comments. He openly admitted that he felt more valued at Chelsea and that it is difficult to avoid criticism in the Bundesliga. This information comes from Christian Falk.
The Bayern bosses believe that Tuchel’s comments are unjustified because they have not seen the desired improvement in the team’s performance, despite providing him with a high-profile signing like Harry Kane. According to the report, Tuchel still has a strong interest in the Premier League and particularly dreams of managing at Old Trafford, which could lead to his return to England.
Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso is making a significant impact at Bayer Leverkusen, leading them to the top of the Bundesliga standings. They currently have a four-point lead over second-placed Bayern, which has further raised questions about Tuchel’s position.y
If Ten Hag leaves in the summer and Bayern fail to win the league and the Champions League, Tuchel might consider moving to Manchester. The opportunity to manage a prestigious club that is eager for a turnaround in their luck is a challenge that the tactician finds hard to resist.
