Thomas Tuchel is facing ϲгιticism following three consecutive Ԁefeats, including a surprising loss to Bochum on Sunday. As Bayern Munich trails league leaders Bayer Leverkusen by eight points, there is speculation that the Allianz Arena officials might contemplate a managerial change. According to The Athletic, if the reigning Bundesliga champions opt to part ways with Tuchel, they could potentially pursue Alonso as a replacement.
Alonso has demonstrated outstanding performance since assuming control of Ԁιе Werkself in October 2022. Despite initial struggles in the relegation zone, the Bundesliga team concluded the 2022-23 season in sixth place. In the current season, the Spanish manager has successfully maintained an unbeaten record in the German top flight, positioning his team on track for a potential historic league title.
The ex-Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich player is attracting interest from Liverpool, who see him as a potential successor to the departing Jurgen Klopp. Additionally, there are reports that Chelsea is considering recruiting the 42-year-old should they part ways with Mauricio Pochettino.
Alonso’s current contract extends until 2026, whereas Tuchel will be left with just a year on his existing deal after the ongoing campaign. Despite the high demand for the former Spain international, it is improbable that his club would permit his departure amid a promising season.
