Nagelsmann wobbles: Does the Bayern coach still have support in the dressing room?

Nagelsmann wobbles: Does the Bayern coach still have support in the dressing room?

Julian Nagelsmann has to worry about his job as a coach at FC Bayern: The kicker reports a dispute with Kimmich and a deadline for the Dortmund game.

Julian Nagelsmann is in the most difficult phase of his coaching career at . Just a few weeks ago, everyone was raving about Bayern playing so well. After four games without a win in the Bundesliga, however, all this is just smoke and mirrors. The 35-year-old has to fight for his job as Bayern coach.

A fee of 25 million euros and a contract term of five years clearly indicate that FC Bayern is aiming for a long-term project with Julian Nagelsmann. At the moment, however, it is hard to imagine that Nagelsmann will still be in office in 2026 – or not.

As of now, those responsible for Bayern are behind the coach. “We’re not dealing with any other coaches now, we’re totally convinced of Julian,” confirmed Bayern during their visit to the Oktoberfest.

Critical tones from the cabin: Zoff between Kimmich and Nagelsmann?

However, it is questionable whether the coach has the same support from the team. Noisy table footballinformation, this may in any case be doubted. According to the football magazine, “critical voices from the team are increasingly coming out”. The coach is said to lack leadership and communication skills.

To the table football it is “known that Kimmich complained about his temporary job as a right-back”. He doesn’t want to help out there, especially in a World Cup year, because he feels at home in central midfield.

Losing Kimmich’s support would be a bigger problem for Nagelsmann. The midfield leader is regarded as Bayern’s secret captain and is the coach’s extended arm and a spokesman in the dressing room.

With regard to the Augsburg game, however, Kimmich’s criticism is seen as rather problematic. The 27-year-old only moved to the right-back position after Mazraoui was substituted, while substitute Gnabry was supposed to strengthen the offensive. Nagelsmann was reacting to a 1-0 deficit and a generally poor Munich performance. Little or nothing indicates that Kimmich has to go to the back more often. Accordingly, it should be said that every single player has to put his ego behind and should also play in unpopular positions in the interests of the team. Whether Nagelsmann’s move was clever is another matter, but Kimmich also has to play on the right back if he is asked to.

Maybe the soup from table football but also cooked hotter than it is. Finally reported the IMAGE a week ago about a quarrel between Nagelsmann and Goretzka, which the midfielder then publicly labeled as “nonsense”.

Air for Nagelsmann is getting thinner: BVB game as a deadline?

Nonetheless, the situation between Nagelsmann and some Bayern players seems to be getting frostier. In addition, it is not clear whether the Bayern coach still has the necessary authority and whether the players trust his approaches. If this is no longer the case, there could be a change relatively quickly.

One factor could definitely be Thomas Tuchel. The coach who was recently dismissed was a serious candidate at Bayern in the past. Should Nagelsmann lose his job, Tuchel should be the first port of call. the IMAGE states October 8 as the deadline. Then it’s up to Munich against . If the deficit increases from three to six points, that could have been it for Nagelsmann.
