OFFICIAL: Thomas Tuchel will LEAVE Bayern Munich at the end of the season

Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel will part ways at the end of the season. This has been published by the German club in a statement in which they highlight that it has been a decision taken jointly by coach and club. The tense atmosphere at the club in recent days has been the possible trigger for the situation.

Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen said in the statement: "In a good, open discussion, we came to the decision to end our working relationship by mutual agreement in the summer. Our goal is to pursue a new footballing direction with a new head coach for the 2024/25 season. Until then, every individual at the club is expressly called upon to achieve the maximum possible in the Champions League and Bundesliga."

The Bavarian club CEO also left a message for the squad: "I also explicitly hold the team accountable in this regard. In the Champions League in particular, after losing 1-0 in the first leg at Lazio, we are convinced we will reach the quarter-finals at a packed Allianz Arena with our fans behind us.

For his part, Tuchel said in the statement: "We have agreed that we will end our working relationship at the end of this season. Until then, I will of course continue to do everything I can with my coaching staff to achieve maximum success.
