Unai Emery was briefly under consideration by the club but this week signed a new deal with Aston Villa Julian Nagelsmann put former club Bayern in a similar position after he doubled down on his commitment to Germany No 1 target Xabi Alonso will also stay at his Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen The Spanish manager is by no means the first of Bayern's post-Alonso options to make similar moves, with Julian Nagelsmann - who Tuchel replaced in April of last year - also inking a new contract with the German national team amid speculation he was set to return to the Allianz.
