Bayer Leverkusen has apparently caught a basket from Thomas Tuchel. The Werkself are said to have asked the German star coach, but Tuchel refused a job in Leverkusen.
Leverkusen’s managing director Fernando Carro confirmed his confidence in coach Gerardo Seoane in Sport1’s double pass on Sunday; nonetheless, given the downturn in sport this season, the Werkself would of course also look at alternatives.
When asked about Thomas Tuchel, who won the Champions League with Chelsea but has since been sacked by the Blues, Carro refrained from commenting – but smiled from ear to ear. Tuchel would be the best plan B there is, that’s crystal clear. Should Leverkusen part ways with Seoane in the near future, however, Tuchel will not inherit him. According to Sport1 chief reporter Patrick Berger, Leverkusen have made contact with Tuchel, but the 49-year-old is not interested in a commitment with the Werkself. At least the topic of Thomas Tuchel in Leverkusen is off the table.
