On Saturday, Thomas Tuchel's Bayern Munich team faced a crushing defeat against Heidenheim. However, despite this devastating loss, Bayern has no intention of letting go of their coach before their upcoming Champions League match against Arsenal on Tuesday.
Just last week, Tuchel's team lost their grip on the Bundesliga title to Bayer Leverkusen, adding to their already demoralizing defeat against Borussia Dortmund. And to make matters worse, they let a 2-0 lead slip away today against a Bundesliga team that is playing in the top flight for the first time in 24 years.
It's no secret that Tuchel announced his departure from Bayern at the end of the season over a month ago. But even with the team's current struggles, the club is not willing to make any hasty decisions before their trip to London.
After their latest setback, Bayern's sporting director Max Eberl was asked if they were considering firing Tuchel immediately. He responded, "No, I haven't even thought about it. It's not always the coach's fault."
When asked if Tuchel would still be on the sidelines for the Arsenal match, Eberl confidently replied, "100%." Despite Tuchel's struggles, Bayern is standing by their coach.
Bayern's star player, Harry Kane, managed to score a goal yet again, but it wasn't enough to prevent another embarrassing defeat. Meanwhile, Heidenheim's German head coach, Frank Schmidt, celebrated a historic win over the mighty Bayern Munich.
But not everyone is as supportive of Tuchel as Bayern's management. Club legend Lothar Mathaus was left speechless after watching another disastrous performance and fears that Tuchel's time may be up.
"Last week's disappointing match against Dortmund and today's result speak volumes," Mathaus stated. "Tuchel seems to have lost the team. His press conferences and statements are strange. I wouldn't be surprised if Bayern reacts in the next 24 to 48 hours because this can't continue. The team needs a new spark, and Tuchel is no longer able to provide that."
As Bayern's future hangs in the balance, Tuchel's fate remains uncertain. But one thing is for sure, Tuesday's match against Arsenal will be a crucial one for both Tuchel and Bayern's season.
