Thomas Tuchel becomes "irritated" when likened to Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, a former colleague of both managers has revealed.
Tuchel is currently in charge of Bayern Munich and guided the German giants to the Bundesliga title in dramatic circumstances last season, pipping Borussia Dortmund to top spot on goal difference on the final day. Prior to this, the 49-year-old was at Chelsea and went head-to-head with Klopp during his time in London.
Klopp earned his reputation as a manager during his seven years in charge of Mainz, a club Tuchel would go on to manage one year after the departure of the current Liverpool boss. Tuchel then later became Klopp's successor at Dortmund after he called time at the club following a further seven-year spell.
