Dortmund FC has officially announced that head coach Tuchel has resigned from his position. Following this news, The Sun has shed light on the inside story behind Tuchel’s decision.
The Sun reports that the main reason for Tuchel’s resignation stems from a conflict with the team’s defensive stalwart, Hummels. There were previous indications that the relationship between the two had become irreconcilable, with only one of them expected to remain at Dortmund.
According to The Sun, an intense argument between Tuchel and Hummels took place prior to Dortmund’s 0-2 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League final, which ultimately led Tuchel to decide on leaving the club.
With Tuchel now departing, it is highly likely that Hummels will continue at Dortmund for the upcoming season.
