According to Sky Sport Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, Bayern has shown interest in Solskjaer as a potential interim manager. While a mid-season departure for Tuchel seems unlikely, the club is reportedly considering contingency plans should the current results not improve.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, a Manchester United legend and former boss, known for his iconic Champions League-winning goal against Bayern Munich in 1999, has experienced mixed success in his managerial career.
After a successful stint as United’s interim manager in 2018, Solskjaer was appointed permanently but faced dismissal in 2022 due to a series of poor results.
Despite the ups and downs in his managerial record, some fans believe Solskjaer could be a fitting choice for Bayern. They highlight his ability to motivate players and his experience at a top club like Manchester United.
Solskjaer, who has expressed his readiness to return to management and embrace new challenges, is now in contention for the Bayern job.
While other names like Zinedine Zidane and Xabi Alonso are also linked with the Bayern position, the potential appointment of Solskjaer has created a buzz among football enthusiasts and Bayern supporters alike.
