Bayern Munich are set to sack their head coach Julian Nagelsmann and bring in former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, according to reports.

Bayern are currently 2nd in the Bundesliga and Nagelsmann, who hasn't been at the training ground this week, is understood to be about to lose his job because the team has gone backwards in the league and the hierarchy have reportedly not seen enough player development.

Nagelsmann won the German Bundesliga and DFL Supercup in his first season in charge of Bayern, after he was appointed in 2021 having guided RB Leipzig to the DFB-Pokal final that year.

Meanwhile, Tuchel has been out of work since being sacked by Chelsea in September. The 49-year-old won the UEFA Champions League and FIFA Club World Cup at Chelsea in 2021. He has also managed French giants PSG & Bayern's rivals Dortmund before the stint in London.
