Things are very bad at Bayern Munich. On Sunday, the German champion lost his third match in a row (away from Bochum 2-3), which happened to him for the first time in almost nine years. In the table, the Bavarian team is already eight points behind leader Bayer Leverkusen, and its chances of defending the championship title are diminishing.
Media: Will Zinedine Zidane replace Thomas Tuchel?
this year results Bayern Munich's future is becoming increasingly uncertain regarding Thomas Tuchel. Although the club authorities have expressed their support for the German, the media are unofficially speculating that he may not remain in his position until the end of the season.
Journalists have also begun listing the names of Tuchel's potential successors. According to Corriere dello Sport reports, Bayern, before the Champions League match against Lazio Roma, contacted the legend Zinedine Zidane, who has been unemployed since 2021. Then he separated from Real Madrid, and it was recently said that he rejected the Algerian national team’s offer.
At the moment, it is not known what the Frenchman's reaction will be to the Bavarians' contact and whether he is interested in working in Germany at all. In addition, possible successors to Tuchel include: Antonio Conte, Jose Mourinho or Jurgen Klopp.
Nobody laughs in Bavaria. At the start of the season, Bayern lost the Super Cup and sensationally exited the German Cup after a match against the third division side.
The specter of defeat, that is, a season without a title, hangs over the Bavarians. In the next round of the league, Bayern Munich will face Leipzig at home. The meeting is scheduled to be held on February 24 (6:30 p.m.). Later, they will also have a match against Freiburg and another Champions League match with Lazio Roma. In the first match of the 1/8 Champions League, Germany lost 0-1 away from home.
