Following the Frankfurt defeat, Bayern bosses came to the conclusion that the team has a leadership problem. With Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller approaching retirement, there are currently no leaders in sight who could fill in the two captains' shoes after they leave. The squad will be completely reassessed by the end of the season - The result could be an upheaval in the leading players in the summer.
Thomas Tuchel sees in Ronald Araújo a potential 'defense boss', the leader of the backline that Kim Min-jae or Dayot Upamecano were signed in the hope to become - but have so far not lived up to that expectation. The Uruguayan defender is said to have a clause that makes a transfer possible for a high double-digit million sum, around â¬80m. Matthijs de Ligt could actually be the defensive leader the club is looking for, but Thomas Tuchel is not a fan of the Dutchman's ball playing ability.
