Tuchel to leave Bayern amid dismal seasonKane upset at news of coach's departureStriker linked with move back to EnglandWHAT HAPPENED?
Bayern confirmed that the German manager will leave the club this summer amid his team's collapse in the Bundesliga title race.

Tuchel is said to have played an important role in Kane agreeing to join the Bavarian side from Tottenham last year, and the England international would have preferred to keep working with him. However, the 30-year-old has accepted that such situations are common in football and does not want to cause further issues.
DID YOU KNOW?
The report suggesting that Kane is upset by Tuchel's impending exit comes amid rumours linking the England captain with a move back to the Premier League amid his team's woeful campaign. However, the striker signed a contract that keeps him at Bayern until 2027 and the Bundesliga side are unlikely to let him leave after just one season.

With Bayern trailing Bayer Leverkusen by 10 points, they are all but out of the race to retain their Bundesliga title, while they were knocked out of the DFB-Pokal in the second round by third-tier side Saarbrucken. Tuchel's team are still in contention to win the Champions League, however, having booked a place in the quarter-finals.
