'I'm not on the market' - Bayern Munich rejected by yet another coach as Benfica boss Roger Schmidt distances himself from links to German giants

Bundesliga

Bayern Munich

Speculation has built that Bayern have turned their attention to Benfica manager Schmidt as a candidate to replace <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/thomas-tuchel-harry-kane-bayern-munich-chelsea-injury-crisis/blt96ede2b7d6f62611" target="_blank">outgoing boss Thomas Tuchel</a> this summer. However, the 57-year-old has made it clear he wants to see out his contract at the Lisbon outfit, which runs until 2026.

WHAT HAPPENED?

He said: "It's clear to me that I'll stay at Benfica until 2026. That's what I want. That's why I signed a new contract. I'm not on the market. I have a job at Benfica. As a coach, I also have to see the development and potential for the coming years. I think a lot of things are good."

WHAT ROGER SCHMIDT SAID

Bayern's search for a new manager is turning into <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/bayern-munich-managerial-mess-xabi-alonso-julian-nagelsmann-thomas-tuchel/blt3b745f05cdfe10e5" target="_blank">something of a nightmare</a>. Efforts to recruit Bayer Leverkusen's Xabi Alonso, German national team boss Julian Nagelsmann, and most recently <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/bayern-munich-search-new-coach-man-utd-ralf-rangnick-latest-reject-thomas-tuchel/blt630d0a55e26916eb" target="_blank">Austria manager Ralf Rangnick</a> have come to nothing. Schmidt's revelation is another blow for the Bavarians.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

While the managerial search continues behind the scenes, Bayern travel to Real Madrid for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final on Wednesday night. The first leg in Germany was a 2-2 draw as Tuchel's side try to prevent a trophyless season.
