Jose Mourinho is “keen” on managing Bayern Munich, according to a story in the Mirror.
Mourinho was dismissed by Roma last month and has since been linked to a plethora of posts in Europe and the Saudi Pro League. Bayern are second in the Bundesliga and fell five points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen following a 3-0 loss at BayArena on Saturday.

The publication writes: “Jose Mourinho is reportedly keen on the Bayern Munich job and has already started taking German lessons in case an opportunity to replace Thomas Tuchel arises. “Tuchel, another former Chelsea manager, guided Bayern to the German title last year after replacing Julian Nagelsmann midway through the season.

He is under pressure, though, following Saturday night’s crushing 3-0 setback to championship rivals Bayer Leverkusen. “And Mourinho is observing the situation with interest, according to Bild, who claim that the two-time Champions League winner has even been learning German behind the scenes since quitting Rome. “Fan unrest is growing in Munich, with the German giants now five points behind Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen, who have now gone 21 matches without defeat in the Bundesliga this term. “Bayern are unlikely to be short on elite candidates if Tuchel, who was appointed as head coach last March, is dismissed in the coming weeks.”
