Thomas Tuchel, the head coach of Bayern Munich, may have a direct impact on Bruno Fernandes’ future at Manchester United.
The German strategist, who has been strongly linked to Jim Ratcliffe’s Old Trafford revitalization project, may decide to remain in Munich as the team continues to search for a replacement.
According to Christian Falk, the Bavarian team, and specifically the present coaching staff, are fans of the midfielder, who is valued at £55.3 million based on Football Transfers’ assessment system.
The head of football at the BILD Group informed CaughtOffside in his exclusive Fact Files column, “Miguel Delaney at “The Independent” has reported that FC Bayern are interested in Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United).”
The present coaching staff actually enjoys this player, particularly his demeanor and playing style.
On the other hand, the managers are unsure of Fernandes’ proper position on the squad right now. If Tuchel continues with FC Bayern, this question will probably spark internal conversations.
This season, the Portuguese international has contributed 27 goals to the Red Devils’ total of 46 games (across all competitions).
Is it possible for Thomas Tuchel to join Manchester United?
In a another universe, the former Chelsea manager turns into the fifth coach to turn down Bayern’s advances.
A chance for a new beginning, where Tuchel feels certain he is not already working against the club administration, would be alluring.
It will be much more difficult to decline this post in the summer when you consider the potentially greater influence over club matters that he will receive in addition to United’s status as a sleeping giant.
That is, of course, assuming that Erik ten Hag and the red half of Manchester part ways at the end of the 2023–2024 season, as is currently the thought process.
Regarding Fernandes, what has Tuchel stated?
The 29-year-old star appears to be greatly admired by the former PSG coach.
The “unbelievable” Manchester United player has gained Tuchel’s admiration, and the coach even acknowledged that he was interested in hiring him for his time in Paris.
According to UnitedInFocus, the 50-year-old stated, “With my first sporting director in Paris, Antero Henrique, he knew (Fernandes) very well and we fought hard to have a connection to him and to bring him to our team.”
“He had a great personality for Sporting, was a proficient goal scorer, and could make other players more dangerous in his vicinity.” He has had an enormous and incomprehensible influence since joining Manchester United.
Certainly this is a move to watch this summer.
