Ralf Rangnick Acknowledges Bayern Munich Contact Amid Focus on Austria's Euro 2024 Campaign

Ralf Rangnick, the current coach of Austria's national team, has confirmed that Bayern Munich has reached out to him regarding their coaching vacancy. However, Rangnick remains fully committed to his role with the Austrian national team and is prioritizing their upcoming Euro 2024 campaign.

Bayern's pursuit of a new coach follows Thomas Tuchel's impending departure at the end of the season. After Xabi Alonso opted to stay at Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern turned their attention to Rangnick, who has extensive Bundesliga experience with clubs like Stuttgart, Schalke, Hoffenheim, and RB Leipzig.

While acknowledging Bayern's interest, Rangnick emphasized his dedication to Austria's national team, stating that his focus is solely on their preparations for the European Championships. He highlighted the importance of maintaining trust with the Austrian Football Federation and expressed contentment with his current position.

Despite Bayern's pursuit, Rangnick remains focused on Austria's Euro 2024 campaign, where they are set to face tough opponents such as Poland, the Netherlands, and tournament favorites France. With his Bundesliga expertise and Austria's ambitions on the international stage, Rangnick's attention remains firmly on the task at hand.
