Although Thomas Tuchel will leave FC Bayern at the end of the season, the 50-year-old wants to give his all until the final day on Säbener Straße. In the Tel case, the Munich coach made it clear that he did not want interference in his work, not even the sporting director Max Eberl.
Bayern's new sporting director, Max Eberl, declared himself a big fan of Mathys Tel in his first match. According to the 50-year-old man, the boy is French The perfect example that the Munich team has enough talent in its own ranks, but it must be used professionally. Eberl would like to work specifically on this point in the future.
Many fans, media and experts saw Eberl's statements to Tel as a blow to Thomas Tuchel. The coach reacted a little “despicably” when asked about this topic: “I think I am and will remain responsible for the lineup. I have never experienced anything different, not even here. I guess it will continue like this. I don't see any conflict with Tel,” he stressed before the league match against SC Freiburg and highlighted that Tel “never played as many minutes as when I was with him.”
“Tuchel wanted to draw a red line”
As “Sport1” journalist Stefan Kumberger reports, Tuchel sent a clear signal to Eberl with his statement in the Tel case.
“Thomas Tuchel has drawn a red line. He has made it clear that, despite Max Eberl and the other alpha animals at the club, he is in the lineup and will continue to do so.”
According to Kumberger, Tuchel could have solved this “with a little more courage”, but the Bayern coach deliberately wanted to “take a step back” and counter the rumors that “he would simply be an outgoing duck”, according to the Bayern insider.
