While there were earlier rumors linking him to a return to the Premier League or a potential move to Barcelona, a report from German news outlet Bild suggests that Mourinho is interested in taking over at Bayern Munich.
Mourinho, with 24 years of managerial experience, is yet to try his hand in the Bundesliga. According to journalist Christian Falk, the two-time Champions League-winning manager is even learning German. This adds an interesting twist to the speculation surrounding Mourinho's next coaching venture.
"I heard he's learning German. He has flirted with the office in the past. He would be ready."
Mourinho's rumored interest in the Bayern Munich managerial position coincides with mounting pressure on current boss Tuchel. Bayern Munich suffered a significant setback in their pursuit of the Bundesliga title after a 3-0 defeat to league leaders Bayer Leverkusen last weekend.
As a result, they have fallen five points behind Xabi Alonso's side in the top-flight standings.
