Thomas Tuchel has claimed that his time at Chelsea 'came to an end too early' as he speaks on his exit for the first time. The 49-year-old was sacked following the Blues' defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in their Champions League group stage opener.
According to The Times, Tuchel would have been dismissed from his post as Chelsea's head coach regardless of the result in Croatia. The report states that the motive for sacking the German was not solely due to on-field performances amid several behind-the-scene issues that convinced Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali to draw the curtains on his tenure.
It's said that Tuchel was not happy with the 'extra responsibility' and 'more power' in the summer transfer window. The Times added that the departure of former technical and performance advisor Petr Cech upset him.
