The situation goes from bad to worse for Bayern Munich and their manager Thomas Tuchel after they suffered another defeat, this time against VfL Bochum. It's evident to both fans and pundits that Thomas Tuchel may not be suitable for the role of head coach at Bayern, and there are indications that the board might also be reconsidering his position.

Internal discussions regarding Tuchel's status at the club have reportedly commenced after the loss to Bochum, as per the reliable source Fabrizio Romano. Thomas Tuchel's tenure at Bayern Munich is under scrutiny, with the possibility of him being dismissed before the end of the season. Nearly a year since Tuchel assumed his role at Bayern Munich, his position at the club appears to be precarious.

As reported by French media Sports Zone, there are widespread reports suggesting that Max Eberl, the former director of Red Bull Leipzig, is poised to join the Bavarian club. Sky Sports Germany has indicated that his appointment at the Allianz Arena is imminent. Moreover, if this sanction happens, the possible substitution can be Xabi Alonso, Jose Mourinho and Zinedine Zidane.

The arrival of Max Eberl is expected to mark the beginning of a new chapter at the Bundesliga club, potentially signaling the end of Thomas Tuchel's tenure as head coach. The incoming management is reportedly planning to dismiss Tuchel at the conclusion of the current season. However, there are indications from Sport Zone that Tuchel's collaboration with Bayern Munich could come to an abrupt end sooner than expected. Amidst escalating tensions, there are doubts about Tuchel's short-term future, leaving the possibility of his departure open.

We’re in this together: Harry Kane

The star striker Harry Kane after the defeat expressed that the team have to take responsibility and aim to play with greater freedom and energy. Kane emphasized that the only direction for them is forward, acknowledging that they cannot alter the outcome of the current game. The Englishman also stressed the importance of looking ahead to the upcoming game on Sunday. Despite the pressure on the former Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund, and Mainz manager, Kane believes that Tuchel should not be removed from his position as Bayern boss.

“For us the focus is on trying to help everyone. The boss is part of our team. We’re in this together. As players we need to take responsibility. We’re the ones on the pitch and we need to make things happen in games,” the England skipper responded diplomatically when questioned about whether the club should consider dismissing Tuchel.
