Thomas Tuchel will leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season, the club have confirmed.

The German coach has been in charge of Bayern since 2020, winning the Bundesliga title twice and the Champions League once.

However, Bayern have struggled for form this season, and they are currently in fifth place in the Bundesliga, 10 points behind leaders Borussia Dortmund.

Tuchel's departure has been rumored for several weeks, and it was confirmed by Bayern on Wednesday.

In a statement, the club said: "FC Bayern München and head coach Thomas Tuchel have agreed to part ways at the end of the season."

"The club would like to thank Thomas Tuchel for his hard work and dedication during his time at Bayern Munich."

"He has been a successful coach for us, and we wish him all the best for the future."

Tuchel's departure is a major blow to Bayern, and it is unclear who will replace him.

One possible candidate is Xabi Alonso, who is currently the manager of Real Sociedad.

Alonso was a player for Bayern from 2014 to 2017, and he won the Bundesliga title and the Champions League with the club.

He is a highly-rated coach, and he would be a good fit for Bayern.

However, it is also possible that Bayern will appoint a more experienced coach, such as Jose Mourinho or Mauricio Pochettino.

Whoever replaces Tuchel will have a tough job on their hands.

Bayern are in a difficult position, and they will need to rebuild their team in order to challenge for major trophies again.
