Strained Relations: Matthijs de Ligt and Thomas Tuchel at Odds in Bayern Munich

Between Matthijs de Ligt and Thomas Tuchel, nothing is going well. Relations have been very cold for several weeks. The point of no return seems to have been reached this weekend during the match against Bayer Leverkusen. Left on the bench, the Dutchman, who is fourth in the hierarchy of central defenders, did not appreciate not playing while other elements were returning from injury or the Asian Cup of Nations. Besides, TZ explains that part of the Bayern Munich locker room did not understand why he was not included in the starting lineup.

The German media adds that TT is not a fan of the player. He wants to rely on centrals who are fast and build the game quickly with vertical passes. Which is not the primary quality of the former Juventus man, who is rather powerful and has great strength of character. This would have been useful against Leverkusen. Either way, his future in Bavaria is threatened. Especially since Tuchel is pushing for Bayern to recruit a new defender. Ronald Araujo (Barça) is his priority. It remains to be seen what De Ligt will do, having been linked to PSG and Barça in recent times. Like him, Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka, who do not have very good relations with TT, are ready to slam the door according to Bild.
