WHAT HAPPENED? Bayern have a full agreement in place with Tuchel, according to Fabrizio Romano, with final documents being prepared on Thursday night.
The ex-Chelsea boss will be asked to repeat the feat he pulled upon taking over mid-season at Stamford Bridge, when he won the Champions League just months into his tenure. He will inherit a talented squad that has underperformed domestically since losing Robert Lewandowski last summer but is still alive in Europe.
AND WHAT’S MORE: Tuchel was sacked by the Blues at the beginning of the Premier League campaign and replaced by Graham Potter. Since then, he has been linked to several jobs, including Real Madrid, where Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly on the brink of an exit.
