Thomas Tuchel prioritises Barcelona and Manchester United transfer

According to Spanish source SPORT, former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is considering joining Barcelona or Manchester United after leaving Bayern Munich. Thomas Tuchel has settled on his ideal summer getaways. The former Chelsea manager wants to transfer to Barcelona or Manchester United after leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the 2023/24 season.

For many years, Thomas Tuchel has been one of the most highly regarded and sought-after managers. The 50-year-old had a brief stint as a footballer before transitioning to management in 2007 with FC Augsburg’s reserve team. But he came to prominence with Mainz before joining Borussia Dortmund in 2015.

Tuchel’s reputation rose dramatically during his time at Paris Saint-Germain, despite the fact that the relationship ended badly. After a brief stay at Chelsea, he led the West London team to an unexpected UEFA Champions League victory in 2021. Meanwhile, the German tactician’s most recent duty was with Bayern Munich.

The former Chelsea manager led Bayern Munich to the Bundesliga title last season but has had a disastrous 2023/24 campaign with Die Roten. Bayern might finish a season without a trophy for the first time in more than a decade. So it’s scarcely surprise that Tuchel will depart Bayern Munich at the end of the 2023/24 season. However, he has decided which team he wants to coach next.

According to recent sources, the 50-year-old is considering joining Barcelona or Manchester United ahead of the 2024/25 season. However, the most recent update reveals that Thomas Tuchel sees those two clubs as his first priority for the summer.

Reports have also connected the former Chelsea manager to other potential vacancies, including West Ham United. However, managing Barcelona and Manchester United is much more attractive. While Barcelona will release Xavi Hernandez after the 2023/24 season, Erik ten Hag is under pressure at Manchester United.

So, both posts might be up for grabs in the coming months, and it will be intriguing to see whether Tuchel can achieve one of his top priorities moving into the 2024-25 season. He is now interested in managing either Barcelona or Manchester United.
