Former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel could be set to make a return to management very soon as German outlet Kicker reports that he could be eyed for the Germany men's national team job. It comes amid doubts over the role currently held by Hansi Flick after a tough World Cup campaign.
The DFB team managed four points from their group stage campaign, but it wasn't enough for them to qualify as their inability to win in their first two games were proven to be costly. It's led to questions over the future of the national team as it was the second successive campaign they failed to make the knockout rounds.
In the wake of the results, sporting director Oliver Bierhoff resigned from his post late on Monday evening. The former striker is a good colleague of Flick, who said in a statement: "My coaching team and I are finding it difficult at the moment to imagine how the gap created by Oliver's departure can be closed professionally and personally."
