Still plunged into disaster, Bayern Munich fell back into a terrible situation by suffering a sixth defeat in the Bundesliga. Before playing Arsenal in the quarter-finals of C1, FCB lost miserably on the Heidenheim pitch (3-2), after leading 2-0 at the break and is now only one bad result away. to say goodbye to the title. While nothing is going well, several ex-Bavarians have already requested the departure of Thomas Tuchel before the end of the season in order to avoid the worst in the Champions League.

But yet, after the debacle at Heidenheim, sports director Christoph Freund confirmed him in his position after the match: “Yes, he will stay 100%. Tuchel is doing everything he can to find energy. The Champions League is Bayern's last chance to win a title. We all know that we can and must do otherwise”, he assured. But internally, the situation is very different and the possibility of seeing Tuchel leave in the coming days is very real.

Thomas Tuchel has an ultimatum

“The speech this week was very moving. Thomas gave his all in this meeting room. This is not what Thomas deserved. If Tuchel will stay well until the end of the season? I can't answer this question at the moment.”, had also tempered Max Eberl, the other strong man of the FCB, after the match. According to information from the Munich media AbendZeitungthe Champions League first leg against Arsenal would actually be Thomas Tuchel's last chance to stay at Bayern Munich.

And if the 50-year-old technician had to be replaced before the end of the season in the event of a disaster, Bayern Munich already has a replacement in mind. This is Miroslav Klose (45), former club scorer and assistant coach under Hansi Flick, who could take over. The former German center forward would then be supported by Bayern's eternal assistant coach, Hermann Gerland. The trip to the Emirates Stadium in London on Tuesday will therefore be decisive for the short-term future of the Rekordmeister.
