After Bayern Munich announced in February that Thomas Tuchel would be leaving the club at the end of the season, the coaching situation seemed uncertain. The German club had faced rejections from several potential replacements, leading to talks with Tuchel about the possibility of him staying on as the coach.
While Tuchel has considered Manchester United as a potential next move if they part ways with Erik ten Hag, there are concerns that he might not be offered the job even if it becomes available. The incoming sporting director, Dan Ashworth, is rumored to prefer a head coach who can fit into a wider structure rather than a manager who seeks more control. This has led Tuchel to question whether he would be the right fit for the club.
Known for challenging club executives during his time at Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, Tuchel has built a reputation as a strong-willed coach. Despite the uncertainties surrounding the Manchester United job, Tuchel remains open to holding formal talks with the club if negotiations with Bayern break down and a vacancy arises at Old Trafford.
Manchester United are facing a decision regarding Erik ten Hag’s future at the club, with talks expected to take place after the FA Cup final against Manchester City on May 25. With a disappointing second season under ten Hag, United sit in eighth place in the league and are at risk of their worst Premier League finish in recent years. Failure to finish in the top seven or win the FA Cup would result in United missing out on European competition next season.
Thomas Tuchel’s coaching future appears to be uncertain, with possibilities at both Bayern Munich and Manchester United. While he is open to the idea of staying on at Bayern, concerns about fitting into Manchester United’s structure may impact his chances of landing the job if it becomes available. As negotiations continue and decisions are made, the coaching landscape at both clubs remains in flux.
