Jürgen Klopp linked with Bayern Munich following Carlo Ancelotti sacking

Klopp Ancelotti

Jürgen Klopp has immediately been linked with Bayern Munich after they dismissed manager Carlo Ancelotti following Wednesday’s 3-0 Champions League defeat by Paris Saint-Germain.

The Liverpool manager is amongst the favourites to replace Ancelotti despite being less than 18 months into a 6-year contract at Anfield but there is nothing credible to suggest at this time that the Bundesliga outfit will make any kind of approach.

 

Ancelotti’s assistant Willy Sagnol, a former Bayern defender, will take over the team on an interim basis. Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel have also been linked with the position.

Bayern are 3rd in the German table, three points behind Klopp’s former club Borussia Dortmund.
