Bayern Munich respond to Thomas Tuchel exit rumour after shock Barcelona link

Bayern Munch have dismissed reports linking Thomas Tuchel with the soon-to-be vacant Barcelona job after comments the German made at a fan event.

The Catalonian club will soon begin their search for a new head coach after Xavi announced he intends to step down at the end of the season.

Tuchel sent alarm bells ringing the following day at a Bayern fan club event when he spoke about his desire to move abroad again and his enjoyment of working with Spanish players.

However, Bayern have now shut down the rumours linking Tuchel with a move to Barcelona, claiming his words had been misrepresented.
