Tuchel took over as the U19 coach at FSV Mainz 05 in the summer of 2008, and his Zerofivers young squad won the German title in that age group right away.

With Mainz’s promotion to the Bundesliga in August 2009, he then took over the first team. Mainz even managed to make the Europa League in Tuchel’s second season after keeping the team in the league in his first.

He led FSV for five years in total, establishing the team in the top division, where they are still now.

Tuchel took over as the head coach of Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2015 following a one-year hiatus. In 2017, he led the black and yellows to the DFB Cup and twice guided BVB to Champions League qualifying. At that time, the coach and the team split ways.

During the 2018–19 season, Tuchel thereafter took the reins as Paris Saint-head Germain’s coach. With the team from the French capital, he won the French Super Cup and the Ligue 1 title in his inaugural season.

He led PSG to the domestic double the following year, including the title and Cup de France. PSG advanced to the Champions League final in Lisbon under Tuchel’s leadership for the first time in the club’s history, however, they fell to FC Bayern 1-0 in the final. Tuchel and PSG split ways in December 2020.

The end of January 2021 saw the appointment of Tuchel as manager of Chelsea, who at the time occupied ninth place in the Premier League. He guided the West London team to victory in the Champions League and fourth place in the league in an exceptional first half of the season.

With the Blues, Tuchel went on to win the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup, and in 2021, he was honored with the Best FIFA Men’s Coach award for his great work. Tuchel was let go from his Chelsea contract in September of last year.

“Sabitzer had been named in our starting line-up to face Steve Cooper’s side, but his withdrawal from the XI due to injury was confirmed just moments before kick-off, with Christian Eriksen called into midfield in his place,” the club wrote.

Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez both had injuries in the middle of the week and now the Austrian is suffering from one as well. Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho are two additional players who are now sidelined with conditions.

Erik, though, is still optimistic that the on-loan midfielder from Bayern Munich will soon be able to compete for the Reds in their critical postseason run-in.

The Reds’ performance in Nottinghamshire was unaffected by the late news of Eriksen’s transfer to the starting lineup, though, and Erik was unsurprised by the manner Eriksen went in at the last minute after impressing off the bench in the prior two games.

According to the coach, Eriksen wouldn’t have had a start if Marcel Sabitzer hadn’t dropped out.
