THOMAS TUCHEL should be replaced as Bayern Munich boss immediately, claims former Germany international Dietmar Hamann.
The ex-Chelsea boss, 50, conceded the title race to Bayer Leverkusen after his side’s 2-0 defeat to Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
It’s already been confirmed that Tuchel will leave Allianz Arena at the end of the season.
But Hamann has called for him to go now, while suggesting who Bayern should go for instead.
The ex-Liverpool midfielder told Sky90: “It’s not about Thomas Tuchel or Max Eberl, Harry Kane or Joshua Kimmich, it’s about Bayern Munich.
“You are among the eight best teams in Europe and if Bayern play what they can, they have a very good chance of progressing against Arsenal.

“This [Arsenal] is a good team, but still very inexperienced at this level.
“And in my opinion you now have to make a decision as to whether this is the best possible setup to progress against Arsenal.

“You now have to seriously think about getting a new trainer for the last few weeks. There are many on the market.

“I think of a (Jose) Mourinho. You can think whatever you want about Mourinho, but at Chelsea the players loved him.
“He’s an outstanding man from a professional perspective.”
Mourinho, 61, has been out of work since being axed by Roma in January.
Prior to that, he was sacked by Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea.
Tuchel replaced Nagelsmann at Bayern 12 months ago, with the 36-year-old going on to succeed Hansi Flick as Germany boss ahead of their home Euros this summer.
Incredibly, Bild’s Christian Falk claims that Bayern chief Eberl has been in contact with Nagelsmann over bringing him back.
