Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel agree to part ways at the end of the season
Thomas Tuchel’s time with the Bavarians set to come to an abrupt end.
It is being widely reported in Germany that Thomas Tuchel has agreed to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season.
As first reported by Sky Germany, a meeting between Tuchel and the Bavarian club’s management took place in the early hours of Wednesday and ended with the two parties reaching an agreement that will see him remain manager until the end of the season but no longer.
Bayern Munich’s poor results of late led to the decision to part ways with Tuchel. In the Bundesliga, Bayern are in second place, eight points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen, and in the Champions League, they need to overturn a 1-0 defeat to Lazio in Rome to qualify for the quarter-finals.
The Bavarians have already been eliminated from the German Cup, where they lost to a third-tier team.
Official confirmation of the decision is expected later today.
