Tuchel speaks on getting sacked as Bayern Munich manager after winning title


 Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel has said he expects to continue in the role, despite the club’s decision to sack CEO Oliver Kahn and sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

The German club announced the dismissal of Kahn and Salihamidzic just minutes after the team won the Bundesliga title on the final day of the season, thanks to a 2-1 win over Koln, ahead of Borussia Dortmund, who drew 2-2 with Mainz.

It was the two men who convinced Tuchel to replace Julian Nagelsmann in March.

But Tuchel does not expect to be dismissed along with them, as he bemoaned the departure of the duo.

“I’ve known since yesterday [that they would be sacked],” Tuchel told Sky.

When asked if he would remain in charge of Bayern, he replied, “I’m assuming so now.”
