Bayern Munich is moving closer to sealing a deal to announce their new manager after they sacked Carlo Ancelotti on Thursday afternoon.

The Italian fell on his own sword this week after the German giants were comfortably beaten 3-0 by Paris Saint Germain.

Dani Alves, Neymar Jr, and Edinson Cavani only rubbed salt into the wounds of Bayern fans after a lackluster start to the Bundesliga season.

A two-goal collapse last weekend already had fans on the back of Carlo Ancelotti and there had been talking of a player revolt within the dressing room.

Up to five key players have been reported to have been on Ancelotti’s case and were already pushing for him to be sacked before the game against PSG.

Now, following the departure of Ancelotti, Bayern are one step closer to naming their new boss.

While his history in Germany will not go down the best with Bayern Munich fans, Thomas Tuchel looks set to be the new Bayern Munich boss.

Tuchel was seen in Munich as talks with Karl-Heinz Rummenigge begun and with the Bundesliga season ongoing the club will want a swift conclusion to the talks.

There were already suggestions that the club had agreed on a deal in principle with Tuchel.

One thing is for sure, if Tuchel does come in, he certainly has some fans that need some winning over in the next few weeks.

One of the biggest suggestions following Carlo Ancelotti’s sacking was a potential return to AC Milan.

The former San Siro boss made a huge name for himself at the club and was a fan favorite among the supporters.

As the club looks to embark on a return to the big time, Ancelotti has been linked with a move back home.

Now, AC Milan has had their say on the rumors.
