Tuchel, the current manager of Bayern Munich, will be leaving the team at the end of this season. Despite leading the team to the Champions League, Bayern has made it clear that they will not change their decision to let him go. This announcement was made back in February, following a disappointing season where Bayern lost their 11-year reign as Bundesliga champions to Bayer Leverkusen.
Tuchel is highly respected in the European football scene and has even been considered as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag, should he be let go from Manchester United this summer. Despite their domestic struggles, Bayern chose to stick with Tuchel rather than bring in an interim coach. And this decision has paid off, as Tuchel led the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League, even with a number of key players injured.
In their recent match against Real Madrid, Bayern showed their determination and resilience by making an impressive comeback in the second half, securing a 2-2 draw. This puts them just 90 minutes away from reaching the final at Wembley. Tuchel's success has even prompted Bayern fans to start a petition for the team to keep him on as their coach next season. However, the club has stated that they will not be changing their minds about letting him go.
Tuchel himself is focused on achieving more success in the Champions League before his departure. Bayern's CEO, Jan-Christian Dreesen, has made it clear that the team's goal is to reach the final and hopefully win the tournament together. After that, they will part ways. With Xabi Alonso deciding to stay with Bayer Leverkusen for another year, Bayern has turned their attention to Ralf Rangnick as a potential replacement. Talks are currently ongoing between the two parties.
Rangnick, who is currently the coach of the Austria national team, has been praised for his skills in developing players and teams. Bayern's president Herbert Hainer has expressed his admiration for Rangnick and the positive feedback he has received from players who have worked with him. With the Euros coming up, Rangnick's focus is on leading Austria through the tournament, but Bayern is hopeful that they can reach an agreement with him in the near future.
