Bayern Munich chief CONFIRMS 'talks are ongoing' for Ralf Rangnick to replace Thomas Tuchel with a decision on the club's managerial future expected 'within a week'

Bayern Munich executive Uli Hoeness has revealed the club will make a decision on their managerial future in the coming days.

The Bavarian giants have endured a disappointing campaign under former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel this season, with the club's run of 11 consecutive Bundesliga titles coming to end at the hands of Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen.

Alonso's extraordinary success in his first full season of senior management led to reports Bayern had earmarked the 42-year-old as their top target before he ultimately confirmed he would remain at the BayArena.
