The Bayern Munich manager was spotted giving Leroy Sane a small kick on the bum during his first training session at the club’s Sabener Strasse base. Tuchel took the charge as the new Bayern manager on Friday. The club made a shocking move last week as they sacked in-form manager Julian Nagelsmann.
The first 15 minutes of the session were open to the media and they spotted Tuchel’s interaction with the players. They also saw the former PSG head giving players one-on-one tips. He had a conversation with each player. Sane was his first priority and he is aware of the Bayern winger’s recent struggles.
The German was not part of the training session last week due to a national commitment. German newspaper Bild reported Sane was granted time away from the club. The former City winger wanted to spend time with his partner and his children. Sane’s wife Candice Brook and his children, Rio Stella and Milo are living in England.
The family moved back to England because Sane’s partner wanted to live in England only. Sane moved to Bayern in 2020 and during his time at City, Candice Brook managed to travel between Manchester and London.

This has reportedly led to Sane commuting between London, Manchester and Munich. Bild reported Bayern star is feeling lonely in Munich without his family. He is even not staying at his home in Munich due to repairing work at Villa.
Since the World Cup, Bayern winger managed to score only three goals for Bayern. He faced a tough time and criticism from the fans. Sane has 13 goals to his name from 32 appearances across all competitions.
Sane arrived at the meeting point six minutes late. Tuchel might help the Bayern star to get his form back in the remainder of the season. Bayern are currently one point behind Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga so Tuchel’s first game will be important. They also have a crucial quarterfinal game against Man City this month.
