'Leading a squad like PSG is not easy': Bayern Munich chief Oliver Kahn takes a shot at the French side, insisting new boss Thomas Tuchel has proven his credentials by dealing with Mbappe, Neymar and Co in Paris

Bayern Munich chief Oliver Kahn has claimed Thomas Tuchel's work at chaotic Paris Saint-Germain demonstrates his quality as a manager.

The German giants sacked Julian Nagelsmann on Friday and instantly hired former Chelsea and PSG boss Tuchel to replace him.

The 49-year-old won trophies at Borussia Dortmund, lifted the Champions League with the Blues, and took the Parisian side to the final of the same competition, despite the turmoil engulfing the club.

And at Tuchel's press conference unveiling, Bayern CEO Kahn insisted Tuchel's achievements dealing with tricky personalities at PSG prove his talent.
