According to reports, Erik ten Hag is among the top choices for Bayern Munich's next head coach. However, he has made it clear that he will not engage in any discussions with the club until Manchester United's season is over. This includes four Premier League games and an FA Cup final against Manchester City on May 25.
Bayern has faced several setbacks in their search for a new coach, with Xabi Alonso, Julian Nagelsmann, and Ralf Rangnick all declining their offers. As a result, the club has now approached Ten Hag's agent to explore the possibility of bringing him on board this summer. However, Ten Hag has made it known to his representative that his current focus is solely on United and their remaining games.
Although he is aware of Bayern's interest, no formal talks have taken place yet. Meanwhile, there has been speculation that Ten Hag may feel vulnerable in his position at United after the departures of football director John Murtough and chief executive Richard Arnold. However, the Dutchman has dismissed these claims, stating that he has a good working relationship with the club and that they communicate daily.
Bayern has also made it clear that they are expecting their current coach, Thomas Tuchel, to leave at the end of the season. In fact, Bayern president Herbert Hainer has stated that they already have an agreement in place and are confident in finding a suitable replacement. Tuchel himself has also acknowledged that he will be leaving and has no interest in staying on.
As for United, they continue to focus on their remaining games and have not made any official statements about Ten Hag's future. However, speculation continues to surround the club and their search for a new coach.
