Thomas Tuchel offers himself to Barcelona to replace Xavi

According to MD, Thomas Tuchel’s entourage have offered him to Barcelona to be their next manager. Tuchel is currently under pressure at Bayern Munich. 

The defeat to Bayer Leverkusen leaves Bayern five points off the lead in the Bundesliga. The report adds that Tuchel is aware that his future is uncertain, so he could now look to take the Barcelona job, provided that he is selected as a possible candidate.

The German already made it clear he’d like to work in Spain, comments that did not go down well with Bayern.

Barca need to find a replacement for Xavi, who will step down at the end of the season. Tuchel is said to enjoy strong support inside the Barca boardroom.
