Joao Cancelo welcomes Thomas Tuchel to Bayern Munich with Man City warning

Joao Cancelo revealed Thomas Tuchel will become the new Bayern Munich manager and joked that he hopes he can help him win the Champions League - having wrecked his hopes with Manchester City.

Bayern are set to announce former Chelsea boss Tuchel as Julian Nagelsmann's successor on Friday after the team's 2-1 loss at Bayer Leverkusen last weekend. The result leaves Bayern second in the Bundesliga - one point behind leaders Borussia Dortmund - and despite their 100 percent record in Europe, the decision has been made to part ways with Nagelsmann.

Cancelo, who joined Bayern on loan from City in January, was asked about Tuchel's imminent appointment after Portugal's 4-0 win against Liechtenstein. He responded with a witty quip about Tuchel's victory against City in the 2021 Champions League final.
