Tuchel already has an impressive coaching career, having led PSG to the Champions League final, won the Champions League and Club World Cup with Chelsea, and even claimed the Bundesliga title.

However, it was his time at Chelsea that made a real impact, demonstrating that he was one of the best managers in the world when he defeated Pep Guardiola to secure a much-needed Champions League trophy.
