Man Utd backed to appoint Thomas Tuchel as manager after impressive interview.
In February, Bayern announced that Tuchel would be departing at the end of the season after an underwhelming Bundesliga campaign in which Bayer Leverkusen clinched their first-ever title.
The former Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea boss has guided the Bavarian giants to the Champions League semi-finals, where Real Madrid await.
Tuchel is part of the exclusive club of coaches working today to have lifted the European Cup, guiding Chelsea to glory in 2021 with a shock victory against Manchester City.
But his spells at Stamford Bridge and the Allianz Arena have fallen in turbulent times for the respective clubs, which appears destined to leave him out of a job again later this year.
Schmeichel, who was crucial to United's historic treble success in 1999, is a huge admirer of Tuchel. He compares his pedigree to that of departing Liverpool legend Jurgen Klopp.
"I like Thomas Tuchel. I've had the pleasure of interviewing him a couple of times and his football knowledge is fantastic," Schmeichel told beIN Sports.
He's been a little bit unlucky with being at two big football clubs at the wrong time of their history, at times where things weren't working on every level.
