Thomas Tuchel turned down approaches from two European giants last season to stay at Chelsea Reports
By Nnanna Mba Modified 08 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Thomas Tuchel turned down offers from two European clubs last season. Chelsea sacked their German boss Thomas Tuchel yesterday (7 September). Amidst his sacking, there are reports that he turned down job opportunities from two European powerhouses last season. According to a report from Jason Burt (via the Telegraph), Tuchel decided against leaving Stamford Bridge for Barcelona and Manchester United. The German manager was at the heart of the Blues' turmoil last season, which saw the side change ownership after sanctions on Roman Abramovich. The period also saw Chelsea go under sanctions from the UK government, which saw Tuchel play the role of the club's spokesman. Jason Burt@JBurtTelegraphThomas Tuchel sacking- shock at being told
