Ralf Rangnick, the current manager of the Austria national team, has been subject to rumors linking him to the Bayern Munich job. However, the former Manchester United interim manager has dismissed these speculations and stated that he is content in his role with Austria.
At the moment, Thomas Tuchel is still in charge of Bayern until the end of the season. However, with his departure in the summer, the search for a new manager is on. Like Liverpool, Bayern had their sights set on Xabi Alonso as a replacement, but the Spaniard has decided to stay at Bayer Leverkusen instead.
With Tuchel's replacement yet to be confirmed, Rangnick was one of the names mentioned as a potential candidate for the position. However, the 65-year-old has put these rumors to rest and stated that he is committed to leading Austria at Euro 2024 and beyond.
When asked if he has been in talks with Bayern, Rangnick responded with a firm no. He explained that he is happy with his current role and has a contract until 2026. He also added that he is looking forward to continuing on the path with Austria after the Euros.
Meanwhile, current Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel hopes to finish his time with the club on a high note. However, his team has been struggling lately, with back-to-back Bundesliga defeats. There have been talks of potential replacements, including Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi, Julian Nagelsmann, Hansi Flick, and Antonio Conte.
Despite the speculation, Tuchel remains in charge and will lead his team against Arsenal in the Champions League on Tuesday night. He emphasized that he always gives his all for the team he coaches and is grateful for the opportunity to train at this level. He also stated that he is not interested in reading headlines about other clubs, as he is fully committed to Bayern until the very end.
In the midst of all this, former Bayern Munich star Owen Hargreaves has made his pick for the Arsenal Champions League tie, while another Bayern player, Leroy Sane, has sent an emotional message to Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta.
