Manchester United and Liverpool have been rumored as potential destinations for Thomas Tuchel. A new report suggests that the German coach wants to make a return to the Premier League after leaving Bayern Munich.
Bayern announced Tuchel’s departure as head coach at the end of the season, with the team facing the possibility of ending the 2023/24 campaign without any trophies.
Tuchel joined Bayern late in the 2022/23 season with hopes of achieving a treble, but only managed to secure the Bundesliga title on the final day after Borussia Dortmund’s unexpected defeat.
He began the season at Chelsea but was sacked in September 2022, leading to his departure. Tuchel’s desire to work in England again is highlighted, with Liverpool and Manchester United mentioned as potential destinations.
The Telegraph reports Tuchel’s interest in returning to the Premier League, with Liverpool and Manchester United as potential options following Jurgen Klopp’s departure from Liverpool.
Tuchel has previously replaced Klopp at Mainz and Dortmund, indicating a potential connection between the two managers.
Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso is a top contender to replace Klopp at Liverpool. However, Bayern’s interest in Alonso adds a new dimension to the situation.
Manchester United is also mentioned as a possible destination for Tuchel, especially with the recent investments from INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Current manager Erik ten Hag has improved results, but his position could be in jeopardy if United fail to qualify for the Champions League.
Tuchel could also explore international management opportunities, especially with uncertainties surrounding Gareth Southgate’s future as England manager.
