Julian Nagelsmann has paid the price for Bayern Munich 's poor performance in the Bundesliga, with the German coach set to be replaced by Thomas Tuchel.
Nagelsmann took over as Bayern boss less than two years ago, guiding them to the Bundesliga title last season. But he will now leave his job over the international break, with Bayern sitting second in the German top-flight, behind Borussia Dortmund.
A defeat to Bayer Leverkusen proved to be Nagelsmann's last game in charge, though the 35-year-old did not feel his job was at risk. In fact, he jetted off to Austria for some skiing before planning for Bayern's run-in to the end of the season.
