Last month, Thomas Tuchel was appointed as Bayern Munich manager following the sacking of Julian Nagelsmann.
One German manager making way for another at the country's top club. It isn't that bizarre, is it? It is rather strange when you consider the pair worked together during the 2007/08 season when they were both at Augsburg. Nagelsmann and Tuchel didn't work directly together but the latter gave the former, who was the reserve-team coach at the time, the job of scouting upcoming opponents to try and gain the upper-hand on them.
"That was my way into coaching," Nagelsmann said on Tuchel, as per the Bundesliga website. "I learned a lot from him."
