Thomas Tuchel Sacking: Bayern Munich: Bundesliga: According to reports, Thomas Tuchel is already facing a battle to retain his position as manager of Bayern Munich, with the club’s board expected to make a decision on his future in under a month. Follow Bundesliga Live Updates on InsideSport.IN.
After replacing Julian Nagelsmann at the Allianz Arena in March, the ex-manager of Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, Thomas Tuchel, returned to his homeland, Germany. Unfortunately, he has faced difficulties at Bayern Munich, as the club was eliminated from the Champions League by Manchester City and lost to Freiburg in the German Cup.

Can Bayern slip up in Bundesliga?
In addition, Bayern Munich, the current Bundesliga champions, have also lost their position at the top of the table, having won only two of their first seven games under Tuchel’s leadership.
According to Bild, the club’s management is scheduled to meet on May 22, just five days before their final league game of the season, to make significant decisions regarding the coaching and management staff.
Oliver Kahn, who currently holds the position of CEO at Munich, is also under scrutiny regarding his future. However, he has made it clear that he has no intention of stepping down and would only leave if he was compelled to do so.

Meanwhile, if it is decided that change is necessary at the helm, sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic may also be relieved of his duties.
Following Bayern’s disappointing 3-1 loss to Mainz on Saturday, CEO Oliver Kahn, sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic, and chairman Herbert Hainer all visited the dressing room.
This move suggests that there is growing pressure on Tuchel, who is only a few weeks into a contract that is expected to last until the summer of 2025.
