Since Raphaël Guerreiro’s move from Borussia Dortmund to Bayern Munich last summer, injuries have limited his appearances, but a crucial goal in the 4-2 Bundesliga win against Heidenheim showcased his impact. With only one start this season, Guerreiro’s versatility and defensive prowess position him as a potential key player during the upcoming English Weeks, with manager Thomas Tuchel likely to rotate the squad.
Despite his defensive role, Tuchel values Guerreiro’s tactical flexibility, often deploying him in midfield, similar to the way Konrad Laimer has been used as an auxiliary right back. In a recent interview with beIN Sports France, Guerreiro shed light on working under Tuchel, emphasizing their prior collaboration at Borussia Dortmund as a significant factor in his decision to join Bayern.
Guerreiro praised Tuchel’s evolution as a manager, noting changes since their Dortmund days. He highlighted Tuchel’s initial strictness evolving into a more player-centric approach, offering more freedom while maintaining tactical fundamentals. The Portuguese international emphasized Tuchel’s influence as a key reason for his move to Bayern, citing the manager’s progression through tenures at Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.
As Bayern eyes success on multiple fronts, including the Bundesliga and the DFB-Pokal, Tuchel’s strategic rotations may see Guerreiro playing a more prominent role. The player-manager synergy between Guerreiro and Tuchel could prove vital as Bayern navigates a demanding schedule, showcasing the manager’s adaptability and the player’s resilience after injury setbacks.
With Guerreiro’s multifaceted skills and Tuchel’s evolving managerial style, Bayern Munich fans eagerly anticipate a dynamic partnership that could play a pivotal role in the team’s pursuit of silverware this season.
