Bayern Munich's players were worried about media leaks when former manager Julian Nagelsmann started dating journalist Lena Wurzenberger, it has been claimed.
Nagelsmann, who took over at the Allianz Arena in 2021, has been sacked by the reigning Bundesliga champions. Bayern have a chance to move top of the table with a victory over Borussia Dortmund in their next league game, but that wasn't enough to save the former RB Leipzig manager, with Thomas Tuchel taking his place.
Bayern chief Oliver Kahn insisted the appointment of Nagelsmann was made with long-term plans in mind. However, amid various reports around the boss' relationship with his squad, the Champions League quarter-finalists have decided to act ahead of their last-eight meeting with Manchester City.
