Thomas Tuchel's job at Bayern Munich is increasingly in question after the German champions lost 3-0 to Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday and 1-0 to Lazio on Wednesday.

However, despite the mounting criticism, Tuchel's job is not in danger for the time being, with both Bild and Sky Germany reporting that he will remain in charge for Sunday's game against Bochum.

However, Sky Germany adds that there is no longer a 100% guarantee that Tuchel will remain in charge until the summer and that his situation will become increasingly difficult if Bayern drop points on Sunday.

Asked about Tuchel's situation after Wednesday's defeat, Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund told Sky Germany:

"Of course he's struggling with the situation, which is very difficult for all of us. Our goal is to get out of this together. We're all in the same boat."

At the post-match press conference, Tuchel himself insisted he isn't worried about his job.
