Bayern Munich finds themselves reassessing their managerial options following Julian Nagelsmann's unexpected contract extension with the German national team, leaving the Bavarian giants in search of alternatives.
As reported by L’Équipe, Bayern Munich could pivot towards Ralf Rangnick in their quest to fill the managerial vacancy, with the former Manchester United manager currently leading the Austrian national team.

Bayern need a new manager
Amidst the uncertainty surrounding Thomas Tuchel's replacement and his impending departure at the end of the season, Bayern's pursuit of a new manager faced a setback when their prime candidate, Xabi Alonso of Bayer Leverkusen, opted to extend his stay with the Bundesliga champions.
With their initial plans disrupted, Bayern now considers Rangnick as a potential candidate, despite the surprise factor associated with his selection, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Although Rangnick's tenure may be short-lived, Bayern remains steadfast in their pursuit of Alonso, indicating a potential transitional phase under Rangnick's stewardship.
Exploring Other Options: Zinedine Zidane in the Mix
While Ralf Rangnick emerges as a contender, Bayern Munich also explores other avenues, with former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane reportedly under consideration. Mundo Deportivo previously hinted at Bayern's progress in negotiations with Zidane, suggesting a possible alliance between the Frenchman and the Bavarian giants.
However, L’Équipe offers a contrasting perspective, as Pulse Sports reported, indicating that Zidane maintains a watchful eye on Manchester United's managerial situation, leaving his potential move to Bayern uncertain.
As Bayern navigates through their managerial conundrum, the possibility of Zidane's appointment adds intrigue to the ongoing saga, underscoring the club's determination to secure a suitable successor to lead them into the future.
