Tuchel, who was dismissed by Chelsea in September 2022, has signed a contract with Bayern until the end of the 2023/24 season. The 49-year-old manager expressed his excitement to join the German giants:
"I am incredibly proud and grateful to become the head coach of Bayern Munich. This club represents the pinnacle of football, and I am eager to contribute to the team's continued success."
Bayern CEO Oliver Kahn thanked Nagelsmann for his contributions during his tenure:
"We wish Julian all the best in his future endeavors. He has been a valuable asset to our club, and we appreciate his hard work and dedication."
Tuchel's appointment signals a new era for Bayern Munich as they aim to regain domestic dominance and compete for European glory under his leadership.
