Bayern Munich CEO Oliver Kahn has announced the club’s decision to sack manager Julian Nagelsmann.
This decision became clear today, on March 24. Along with Nagelsmann, assistant coaches Benjamin Gluck, Xavier Zembrod and Dino Toppmel were released.
“We came to the conclusion that despite being champions in the Bundesliga last year, the quality of our team is becoming less and less important. After the World Cup we played less successfully and less attractively.
Unstable performances made us question our goals for the future as well as our goals for this season. That’s why we’ve taken action now,” Kan said on the club’s official website and continued as follows:
35-year-old Nagelsmann was replaced by 49-year-old Thomas Tuchel. The player, who has a contract until 30 June 2025, will train for the first time on Monday, 27 March.
Led by Nagelsmann this season, Bayern eliminated Paris Saint-Germain from the tournament and reached the 1/4 finals of the Champions League in the 2022/23 season. Having collected 52 points at the end of 25 weeks in the Bundesliga, the team ranks second in the ranking.
