Tuchel left Bayern at the end of last season after their 11-year dominance in the Bundesliga was emphatically ended by Bayer Leverkusen.
Reports in England indicate he is the leading candidate for the Man United coaching role if the 20-time English champions part ways with Erik ten Hag.
What did Tuchel say about Man United job?
According to Metro Sports, Tuchel, who reportedly spoke to the club in the summer, is open to managing Man United.
He is currently jobless after his departure from Bayern last season. The ex-PSG boss is one of the few big-name managers.
Fans have welcomed the idea of having Tuchel as coach, but there are doubts about his style due to the way his Chelsea spell ended.
Man United's 2023/24 season
The Red Devils have started the season with three wins from 10 matches. Their victories have come against Fulham, Southampton, and Barnsley.
Since their 7-0 over Barnsley in the Carabao Cup, they have drawn four and lost one of their last five matches.
After last weekend's 0-0 draw with Aston Villa, Man United have eight points from seven Premier League games, their worst start to a Premier League season.
Big defeats at Old Trafford to Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have turned up the heat on Erik ten Hag, who said he is not concerned by the sack talk.
