Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has claimed that Julian Nagelsmann’s decision to go on a skiing holiday after a Bundesliga defeat played a role in his dismissal.
Nagelsmann has found himself on the lookout for a new job after being sacked by Bayern last month despite their impressive Champions League form. The reigning Bundesliga champions won all six group games before eliminating Paris Saint-Germain in the round of 16.
However, Bayern had slipped from top spot in the division following a defeat at Bayer Leverkusen earlier this month. The Bavarian giants returned to top spot this weekend as Thomas Tuchel’s first match in charge brought a 4-2 win over Borussia Dortmund, which saw them leapfrog their title rivals.
