Bayern Munich linked with shock move for former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Bayern Munich have been linked with a shock move for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as interim manager, if they choose to get rid of Thomas Tuchel before the end of the season.

Tuchel is under a lot of pressure in Bavaria after three straight defeats, beaten by Bayer Leverkusen, Lazio and Bochum.

The Champions League loss to the Italian side can be overcome in the second leg of their last 16 tie, but the back-to-back Bundesliga defeats could prove very costly in Bayern’s title chase.

Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reports that the club intend to keep hold of Tuchel at least until the end of the season but are making plans to go down other routes if they feel they have to.
