Bundesliga: Thomas Tuchel will leave Bayern at the end of the season

Bayern Munich, mired in a rare crisis, has decided to part ways with its coach Thomas Tuchel at the end of the season, the Bavarian club announced in a press release on Wednesday. Arriving on the Munich bench at the end of March 2023 to replace Julian Nagelsmann, dismissed to everyone's surprise, Thomas Tuchel had signed a contract until June 30, 2025, the end of the contract which was reduced to June 30, 2024, explained Bayern .

“After open discussions, we have reached the conclusion to end our joint work in the summer,” explained the chairman of the board, Christian Dreesen, quoted in the club press release. Tuchel will thus still manage a maximum of between 13 and 18 Bayern matches (depending on the course in the Champions League) and will leave Munich only a little over 15 months after joining.

Left behind in the league (8 points behind Bayer Leverkusen twelve days before the end of the season), eliminated in the Cup, beaten in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League, Bayern is under the threat of experiencing in 2024 a first year without a trophy since 2011. In 2023, he saved the furniture by winning an eleventh consecutive German championship title, snatching the “Schale” – name of the trophy awarded to the champion – from the hands of Borussia Dortmund in the 89th minute of the last day with a goal from Jamal Musiala.

Bayern experienced a nightmarish sequence with a slap received ten days ago on the pitch of Bayer Leverkusen (3-0) for the shock at the top of the Bundesliga, then a defeat on the pitch of Lazio in Rome (1- 0) in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League, and finally a setback to Bochum (3-2) which is fighting to maintain its position.

The Munich residents had not experienced such a negative series since the end of the 2014-15 season, two defeats in the league interspersed with a defeat in the Champions League half at Barcelona. And again, at the time the title of champion had already been assured for a long time. This sequence began with an elimination from the Cup in the half in Dortmund, on penalties. Tuchel, 50, former coach of PSG whom he took to the Champions League final in 2020, won the C1 in 2021 with Chelsea.
