(fixes Rummenigge job title)
Bayern Munich on Thursday
sacked Carlo Ancelotti after a poor league run culminated in a
3-0 Champions League loss to PSG Wednesday night.
"From the start (of the league championship) performances
have not been up to the standard we had expected," the Bavarian
club said in a statement.
"I'm sorry for Carlo, who remains a friend, but we had to act
for the good of Bayern," said CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
Bild said Ancelotti had been shown the door and his deputy
Willy Sagnol would take over as caretaker manager.
According to the German daily, Bayern are aiming to hire
former Borussia Dortmund coach Thomas Tuchel as a long-term
replacement.
