Revealed : Reason behind Julian Nagelsmann sacking as Thomas Tuchel confirmed as new Bayern manager

By -
In the late hours of Thursday, Bayern Munich made a shocking decision as new broke about the Bavarians parting ways with Manager, Julian Nagelsmann, 20 months following his appointment.


The German, who had been the club manager since he replaced Hansi Flick in the summer of 2021 helped them to the league title last season but suffered elimination in the Champions League quarter finals, to Villarreal.

While the club continued to give verbal support until the last minute, there have been concerns over his ability to take the club forward and club felt their goal for the remainder of the could be at risk, hence, his sacking.

Nagelsmann himself had complained about lack of support from the club, highlighting their inability to replace Robert Lewandowski after the striker departed for Barcelona in the summer.

Club and fans have also criticized Nagelsmann of his tactics, which they believed has costed them twelve points in the Bundesliga this year, hence their inability to blow Dortmund away in the race for the league title.

Bayern already have a place in the Champions League last eight, where they'll face Manchester City over two legs and the management had doubt about the 35year old’s willpower to come through.

Former Chelsea boss, Thomas Tuchel has been appointed with immediate effect. Tuchel, who was a former Dortmund boss will now go head to head against his former side for the league title.


A Champions League winner at Chelsea, he'll face the team he beat in the final in 2021 to get Bayern the ticket to the last four.

Nagelsmann managed Bayern 84 times, recording 60 wins and ten defeats.

Under his tutelage, the Bavarians scored 255 goals and conceded 84 times, averaging 2.31 points and three goals per game.

He has in the past been linked with Real Madrid and the Spanish giants could now rejuvenate their interest, with the continuous criticism of Carlo Ancelotti and his link with the Brazil National Team.

Speaking in 2021, Nagelsmann said:

“I received a call, two years ago, from Real Madrid, they wanted to know me and my philosophy better. If they call me again in the future, the decision might be different. Back then, I didn't have time to prepare, learn Spanish & and lack the experience.”

Maybe now, the time is right for him to finally embrace the call if Real Madrid do come calling. An interesting summer awaits.

Nagelsmann’s departure has been confirmed and the former RB Leipzig manager will arrive at the club today having not shown up in training this week.

The contract, which was supposed to run until 2026 will be terminated, and both parties can then go their separate ways.

Ralf Rangnick proffered a permanent solution but United choose to make more casualties with Erik Ten Hag

Ralf Rangnick appeared to have unraveled the puzzle at Manchester United during his short stint as the club's interim manager but the hierarchy did not take heed to his priceless advice. Albeit the German did not enjoy the best of time in the helm of affairs in Old Trafford, Rangnick, who had proven to be more of a administrative minded man prior to his appointment at the club did left blueprints that could have healed the club completely. Looking back and you'll realize it could have been more worth it had speculations of him becoming the club's Director after leaving the Coaching role come to pass. Even in his early days as a professional football coach, Rangnick did not have a reputation of thriving when the stake is high but he flourishes more in an environment that gives him the avenue to build from scratch. The notion was proven truth during his time at Stuttgart, Hannover and even Schalke, where he helped all these teams finesse nightmares into glamour. His appointme

A sign of what is to come but no excuse for Chelsea's late capitulation in the London derby

By -

Chelsea ended a run of three straight home defeats to Arsenal in an enthralling London derby match in the Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening. While many will see it as a positive omen for the host, which is rightly so, it was very poor game management by both the players and the manager to allow the visitors snatch a point later on the night. Arsenal was there for the taking. It was the worst display by Mikel Arteta's side in recent years and despite having a two goal cushion, Mauricio Pochettino's side were unable to see out the win from a very comfortable position. Cole Palmer and Mykaylo Mudryk continue to show signs of finally settling into their rhythm under Mauricio Pochettino, much to the delight of the home support as the Blues were all over their rival from the North for the first 70 minutes in the Bridge. Both players also scored in either half, with Mykaylo Mudryk scoring his first ever Chelsea goal in the Stamford Bridge with a wonderful cross-cum-shot, which caugh
