Bayern Munich Thomas Tuchel wants new job ‘as soon as possible’ amid Barcelona links – Fabrizio Romano
Barcelona appear to have three names at head of their managerial shortlist for the coming season, and the fact that one of them has only recently become available has clearly sparked a number of rumours. Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel made it public that they would not be continuing together past the summer, meaning the Blaugrana would not be forced to negotiate a financial package to bring him in.

Meanwhile another former Bayern manager in Hansi Flick has also been linked extensively with the job.
