Thomas Tuchel spoke in the press room ahead of the decisive Champions League semi-final second leg against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu and gave some clues about his future. The German coach has been linked with Manchester United in recent weeks. The rumours have not stopped as Erik ten Hag is not having the best of times in the Old Trafford dugout following their defeat to Crystal Palace. The former Blues boss revealed he loved his time in England.
"I’d rather not answer but it is no secret that I loved it at Chelsea, I loved it in England. I loved it in the Premier League for sure, it was a very, very special time and I remember it very well," said Tuchel.
What he did make clear is that his future is probably not at Bayern, although a few days ago he left the door open to a possible continuity in Munich. “It’s very, very, very unlikely that it’s at Bayern. I have to say, because we have an agreement, there is at the moment no reason to doubt this agreement."
"We took this position, the initiative came from the club, and so it is and I’m fine with it. I don’t need it for the extra percentage of competitiveness because I’m always up for a win, I’m always thinking how to improve the squad or how to improve myself in coaching," added the Bayern boss.
"We go all in. Does it (winning Champions League) have an influence on where I am next season? Maybe not, maybe I’m on holiday no matter what, let’s see, let’s see,” he concluded.
