Tuchel confirms he will step down as Bayern Munich boss

Thomas Tuchel has confirmed he will depart Bayern Munich at the end of the season.

Both parties had announced in February that the German would leave in the summer.

But recently, there were speculations that Bayern and Tuchel were looking into the possibility of him staying on.

However on Friday, Tuchel said Saturday’s match away at Hoffenheim would be his final game.

“This is my last press conference on Säbener Strasse [Bayern’s training centre],” Tuchel said.

“The agreement from February remains. There were further discussions, but we have not found an agreement on further cooperation. That’s why the agreement remains.”
