Bavarians can reach the Champions League final, but they’ve had a turbulent season with many bitter pills to swallow. They were desperate in the Bundesliga, stepping down from the throne after 11 years. They failed to clinch trophies in the German Cup and the Super Cup. Thomas Tuchel won’t stay on Bayern’s bench. Once, the Munich team was the great desire of all coaches. Not even Pep Guardiola resisted the call from Bavaria after leaving Barcelona. However, times have changed. The bidding for a new coach continues. There’s still no solution. In recent weeks, names like Xabi Alonso (staying at Bayer Leverkusen), Julian Nagelsmann (staying with Germany), Roberto De Zerbi, and Ralf Rangnick (staying with Austria) have been mentioned. One of the targets was also Zinedine Zidane, but the French ace, who is still resting after leaving Real Madrid, declined Bayern’s offer publicly on TV.👀 Zinédine #Zidane at Sky:@FCBayern or @realmadrid to win?„Hopefully Madrid. But it’s going to be a difficult game.“ 📍 Will you be FC Bayern coach in the future? „No. I’m going to watch the game.“ @Sky_PeterH | @SkySportDE 🇫🇷 pic.twitter.com/cG65RSAhhI— Florian Plettenberg (@Plettigoal) May 5, 2024 When asked by a journalist from German Sky if he would be Bayern’s coach, Zidane categorically said, “No.” He added that he expects a tough rematch in Madrid and hopes that Real will advance to the final. So, after another rejection, Erik ten Hag (of all people) has returned to the forefront as a solution for Bayern’s bench. He is still the manager of Manchester United, but his position at Old Trafford has been shaky for some time. The Dutchman, who achieved great results with Ajax (reaching the Champions League semi-finals and winning numerous domestic trophies), has a valid contract with the Red Devils. According to reports from global media, there have been discussions between Bayern’s executives and Ten Hag. Allegedly, he would not be opposed to taking the helm of the German giant in the event of his dismissal from Old Trafford. Another name circulating as a coach for the Munich team next season is the Spaniard Julen Lopetegui, who is also sought after by Milan. There is no doubt that we are in for a hot summer transfer window, not only regarding players but also coaches.If Bayern get rejected so much, what we mortals should expect?! Now even Rangnick tells them ‘no’After Bayern’s advance to the Champions League semi-finals and their active result (2-2) before the semi-final rematch in Madrid, there was a possibility that Thomas Tuchel might stay. However, the Champions League winner with Chelsea dismissed the idea of remaining at Bayern’s helm.”Since we agreed to part ways at the end of the season, Bayern has been actively working on bringing in a new coach. I believe they are still searching at this very moment, as we speak. After everything, it would be poor motivation for someone to say, ‘Oh, please stay for another year’ No. From my side, everything is crystal clear” Tuchel conveyed to the Munich team’s leadership.##NAJAVA_MECA_8079525##
