Former Tottenham boss Antonio Conte tops Bayern’s list as they look for a new manager.
Last month, it was announced that Thomas Tuchel would be leaving Bayern at the end of the season, and it looks like former Tottenham boss Antonio Conte could replace him there.
The perennial winners find themselves in danger of going trophy-less for the first time since 2012. Even if they do manage to beat Arsenal in the quarter finals, they will be up against Manchester City or Real Madrid in semis. This is not an ideal situation.
Antonio Conte has been reported as a top priority contact for Bayern as Tuchel prepares to leave. Even though many other clubs are interested, the manager sacked by Spurs last year. This is according to the Metro.
He is one of the most successful managers of his generation. Though his stunts at both Chelsea and Spurs were fateful, he did lead Juventus and Chelsea to some big wins.
Why Antonio Conte would be the right choice for Bayern
Despite his time at Tottenham ending at a sour note, Conte did lead the team to a few victories in his tenure. The club has only now started to build a stronger foundation, but earlier, was not doing so well. To have that sort of strategy with Spurs showed his talent as a manager, which is what Bayern Munich is now seeking.
But most importantly, Antonio Conte has a good rhythm with Bayern players like Harry Kane and Eric Dier. Having worked with them both before, it would be easy to establish gameplay for Conte with these players. He got the best out of Harry Kane during his time at Tottenham which can prove to be an asset. As Bayern Munich prepares for the next season, Antonio Conte must make sure to use his star players.
