FC Bayern, News: Thomas Tuchel’s salary is said to be that high

Thomas Tuchel was officially introduced as the new Bayern Munich coach at a press conference on Saturday. He signed a contract until the summer of 2025 – and joked about it: “That’s progress, I only had 18 months at Chelsea.” He feels “very comfortable with the term. There were brief discussions about two or three years. If everyone feels comfortable, we will extend it. I think the term is perfect.”

The 49-year-old is apparently also paid royally for these two and a half years: Like them Picture reported, Tuchel should get ten to twelve million euros a year from Bayern. That’s even more than Julian Nagelsmann received, which was said to be eight to nine million a year – and whose departure will probably cost Bayern dearly.

On the other hand, Tuchel is apparently making cutbacks in terms of salary compared to his last job: he is said to have received 15 million euros a year at Chelsea. “I noticed that on Friday at the office, when you sign the employment contract late in the evening on Säbener Strasse, it’s something very unusual,” he said of his new employer.

FC Bayern, News: Thomas Tuchel jokes about Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting

Bayern published on Saturday evening via social media a short video, in which Thomas Tuchel can be seen in the dressing room. One jersey in particular caught the eye of the new trainer. “Here, for the third time – the poor guy!” said Tuchel and went to striker Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting’s place. Tuchel had to smile himself.

Background: Tuchel knows the 34-year-old from two previous coaching positions. When Choupo-Moting came to FSV Mainz 05 in 2011, Tuchel was already a coach there. The attacker was also looked after by Tuchel when he switched to PSG in 2018.

The record: In Mainz, Choupo-Moting scored a total of 20 goals in 74 games under Tuchel. As a substitute for the high-priced Parisians, he still scored six goals in 31 appearances.

FC Bayern, News: Stefan Effenberg considers Nagelsmann’s comeback possible

According to former midfield star Stefan Effenberg, the Bayern Munich chapter may only be over for Julian Nagelsmann for the time being. “It was probably just too early for him,” Effenberg wrote in his column for the news portal t-online about the head coach who was fired on Friday.

However, if a certain amount of time has passed, he can “imagine that the door will open again,” explained Effenberg. Nagelsmann, who is only 35, “could have the opportunity to come back to Munich in ten years’ time”.

The decision of the club officials to separate from Nagelsmann is still understandable for Effenberg. “When decisions are made in this club, they are made quickly, hard and consistently. There are no games on probation at Bayern Munich,” explained the 54-year-old.

The Nagelsmann case will also have further consequences. “There will no longer be a five-year contract for a coach at Bayern,” believes the club’s former captain. Effenberg continues: “Nagelsmann was her long-term project – and it failed.”

Accordingly, “the bosses are now under pressure too. Oliver Kahn and Hasan Salihamidzic are already taking it personally and putting these shoes on themselves.”

FC Bayern, News: Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka contradict the bosses

Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka commented on the dismissal of Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann during the DFB-Elf friendly against Peru.

Of course it’s strange. At the end of the day, that’s how business is. Little love, little heart,” said Kimmich after Germany’s 2-0 win, when asked about the change of coach at Bayern Munich. “We have to learn to deal with it and live with the decision.”

Kimmich also went to court with the team. “At the end of the day, of course, when there’s a change of coach, it’s always disappointing because it means we players failed because we players didn’t consistently get the performance on the pitch. We didn’t manage to get good results A change of coach doesn’t happen otherwise,” said Kimmich.

The 28-year-old has no ideas about the new coach Thomas Tuchel. “I don’t know him like that yet.”

Teammate Goretzka made a similar statement. “I would be lying if the last few days hadn’t affected us too. It’s always extreme in this business, how quickly something like this can happen. That’s why, of course, the last few days have left their mark on us, I think.” said the Bayern midfielder after the final whistle.
