When the season ends, Thomas Tuchel’s tenure at Bayern Munich will come to an end. He has sent out a rallying call to the players, some of whom have had difficulty with the former Chelsea manager.
Upon confirmation of his departure from Bayern Munich, Thomas Tuchel informed his team, “We have to win”.
The Allianz Arena problems have led the club’s management to decide to sever relations at the end of the current campaign, even though the German has only been in charge for a year. Some of Tuchel’s senior players, including Joshua Kimmich, have reportedly been having internal disagreements.
While Bayer Leverkusen leads the Bundesliga by eight points, Bayern’s performance has also collapsed in recent weeks, putting their hegemony in jeopardy. Lazio and Bochum, Tuchel’s team’s Champions League adversaries, were their most recent opponents.
Tuchel has made an effort to allay dissent since his departure was announced, with BILD stating he told the locker room that “everyone knows about it, there are no longer discussions every week.” We need to prevail, but we can still accomplish something.”
Jan-Christian Dreesen, the chief executive of Bayern, joined Tuchel and reiterated the players’ demands. The players face losing their Bundesliga title for the first time since Borussia Dortmund won the German title in 2012.
“I told the players very clearly that the club and the team’s interests must take precedence over their own,” he stated. The FC Bayern is the most significant factor. The athletes now must perform to the level of their unquestionable talent and to feel a sense of honor.
To catch up with Leverkusen, Bayern must now rely on them giving up points, even if Xabi Alonso’s team hasn’t lost yet this year and is still setting records in their native country. In addition, Tuchel has to come back from a 1-0 Champions League disadvantage against Lazio.
After acquiring Harry Kane in the summer, the Bavarians were strongly favored to advance far in Europe. The former Tottenham striker has scored goals quickly, but with Bayern already eliminated from the German Cup, he will likely go through another season without a trophy.
The Englishman kept Bayern’s modest title aspirations alive at the Allianz Arena this past weekend by scoring the game-winning goal in injury time.
