Since the summer of 2021, Zinedine Zidane has been without a club and now has the opportunity to succeed Thomas Tuchel at Bayern Munich at the end of this season. However, the French coach faces tough competition in this matter from Ralf Rangnick. Indeed, the current Austria national team manager has been approached by the Bavarian club.
Thomas Tuchel (50 years old) won’t be staying much longer at Bayern. Both parties have announced their separation at the end of the season. To fill the gap left by Thomas Tuchel, Bayern’s management has identified several candidates, including Zinedine Zidane (51 years old). Unfortunately for the 1998 Ballon d’Or winner, the Bavarian club has already approached Ralf Rangnick, as he revealed himself. “Bayern contacted me.
I informed the Austrian Football Federation, with whom I have a trusted relationship. I am focused on the national team and the European Championship, which will take place this summer. I feel good here. For now, there is no specific reason to respond to this request. But if Bayern calls you and says they want you, my first thought will be to see if I want it too,” disclosed Ralf Rangnick (65 years old) in an interview with 90minuten.at.
“I feel good here,” added Ralf Rangnick. “I want to take care of Austria in the best possible way. I have established a relationship of trust with the team, which will not play better just because I say I will definitely stay here for the next four years. If I want to do something different, I will discuss it with the federation first. There are no financial questions in the middle; it doesn’t matter to me because I value other things, like team growth, success, and the opportunity to make a difference,” concluded the current Austria national team manager. These remarks are reported by TMW.
