Thomas Tuchel is leaving Bayern Munich in the summer.

Tuchel had a contract with Bayern until June 2025, but the Bavarian group announced that the technician will leave the technical bench at the end of this season.

As reported on the club’s official website, this decision “is the result of a constructive discussion between the executive director Jan-Christian Driesen and Thomas Tuchel”.

The crisis began after the defeat of “Bavaria” on the field of Bayer Leverkusen with a score of 3:0. This was followed by failure in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League (0:1 against Lazio) and another loss in the German championship (2:3 against Bochum / the team is eight points behind the leader of the Bundesliga).

“We have agreed that we will end our cooperation after the end of this season. Until then, my staff and I will, of course, continue to do everything we can to ensure maximum success.” – Thomas Tuchel.

“After a good and open discussion, we have come to the decision to end our working relationship by mutual consent in the summer. Our goal is to develop a new football direction with a new head coach in the 2024/25 season.

Until then, everyone at the club is strongly encouraged to achieve as much as possible in the Champions League and Bundesliga. I also clearly hold the team responsible for this.

Especially in the Champions League, after losing 1-0 in the first leg against Lazio, we are convinced that we will reach the quarter-finals at the Allianz Arena archipelago, with our fans.” Jan-Christian Driesenexecutive director of the Munich club “Bavaria”.
