Ralf Rangnick, the former Manchester United manager, was the frontrunner to replace Thomas Tuchel as the boss of Bayern Munich but has rejected the Bundesliga giants in order to focus on his job in charge of the Austrian national team. Last month, Rangnick confirmed that Bayern Munich had contacted him but stated that his priority was the Austrian national team and their upcoming participation in the European Championship. His decision was influenced by his strong relationship with his Austrian team and his commitment to their success in the tournament. Rangnick emphasized that his rejection of Bayern Munich was not a negative reflection on the club but rather a choice in favor of his team’s goals.
Following his decision to remain with Austria, Rangnick expressed his dedication to the national team and his enthusiasm for the role. He stated that he is fully focused on leading Austria to success and achieving their goals together. This commitment led to his decision not to take up a consultancy role with Manchester United, which was planned for after his interim managerial position with the club in 2022. Rangnick took up the Austria job in April, and as a result, he will no longer have any involvement with United. Both United and Austria thanked Rangnick for his efforts during his time as interim manager and wished him the best for his new role with Austria.
With Rangnick’s rejection of Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga club will now turn their attention to other potential candidates for the managerial position. Bayern has also ruled out the possibility of keeping Thomas Tuchel in charge and is actively searching for a new head coach. The club’s clear goal is to reach the final and win the Champions League, and they are focused on achieving success in the competition. Bayern’s CEO, Jan-Christian Dreesen, highlighted the different circumstances surrounding the decision to part ways with Tuchel and the current situation. The club is determined to continue their pursuit of success and is looking forward to new opportunities with a different coach.
