Tottenham on alert as Bayern sack Julian Naglesmann and appoint Thomas Tuchel
Nagelsmann was widely considered to be one of
the top candidates for the Tottenham job in the event that Mourinho was let go.
However, with his recent appointment at Bayern, it seems that option is no
longer available.
The 33-year-old German coach was appointed by
Bayern Munich last summer on a five-year contract but failed to win any
silverware with the club. His dismissal comes as a surprise to many, given his
impressive record with his previous club RB Leipzig.
Tuchel, on the other hand, was recently sacked
by Paris Saint-Germain and has now been appointed by Bayern. He has a wealth of
experience and has previously managed Borussia Dortmund and PSG.
For Tottenham, the decision by Bayern to sack
Nagelsmann and replace him with Tuchel could be seen as a missed opportunity.
Nagelsmann had been linked with the Tottenham job for some time, and his
appointment at Bayern could have opened the door for him to move to London in
the future.
However, there is still no clarity on
Mourinho's future at Tottenham. The Portuguese manager has faced criticism this
season, with the club currently languishing in seventh place in the Premier
League. There have been rumors that his time at the club could be coming to an
end, with many suggesting that he could be replaced in the summer.
With the appointment of Tuchel at Bayern, it
remains to be seen what impact this will have on the managerial merry-go-round
in Europe's top leagues. For Tottenham, the focus will now shift to the
remainder of the current season and whether Mourinho can turn things around and
secure a top-four finish.
