Bayern missed out on the Bundesliga title to a Bayer Leverkusen side who remain unbeaten this season.

However, he can still win the Champions League and faces Real Madrid in the second leg of the semi-final on Wednesday, which is live on talkSPORT.

Even if he does win the Champions League it is unlikely he will be at Bayern next season.

Tuchel told TNT Sports: “It’s very, very, very unlikely that it’s at Bayern, I have to say, because we have an agreement, there is at the moment no reason to doubt this agreement.

“We took this position, the initiative came from the club, and so it is and I’m fine with it.

“I don’t need it for the extra percentage of competitiveness because I’m always up for a win, I’m always thinking how to improve the squad or how to improve myself in coaching.

“We go all in. Does it have an influence on where I am next season? Maybe not, maybe I’m on holiday no matter what, let’s see, let’s see.”

Tuchel has been heavily linked with Manchester United and already enjoyed success in the Premier League with Chelsea.

He won the Champions League in 2021, before being sacked in September 2022.

The 50-year-old hinted that a return to the Premier League could happen.

“It is no secret that I loved it at Chelsea, I loved it in England and I loved it in the Premier League for sure, it was a very, very special time and I remember it very well,” he added.
