In an email from his ex-wife, Thomas Tuchel claimed that the reason for his dismissal by Chelsea was due to "off-field issues" and the fact that the players no longer respected him.
The information was revealed during a hearing at the district court in Munich after Tuchel, 49, and his wife Sissi, 51, divorced last year after 13 years of marriage.
According to the German newspaper Bild, Sissi, a former Suddeutsche Zeitung journalist, received a call from England in which she was informed of the alleged justifications for his dismissal from Chelsea in September of last year.
She reportedly heard that the Chelsea players no longer respected the coach who guided them to Champions League victory in 2021. Others cited mysterious "off-field" explanations.
Tuchel wanted to use a temporary injunction to stop Sissi from disclosing the details of the email that laid out the reasons, according to Bild.
At the time, Tuchel's dismissal was cited as the result of disagreements with Todd Boehly, the new owner of Chelsea, as well as his team's poor performance.
Tuchel, who did not attend the heading, nor his ex-wife, who did, expressed a desire to comment. Bild stated that they were unable to publish some of the email's claims due to legal reasons.
The couple had two daughters together after getting married in 2009. The couple's separation and Sissi's filing for divorce were first reported by The Mail on Sunday in April of last year.
The presiding judge said the Munich hearing was held behind closed doors 'because the highly personal area of life is touched on and the truthfulness of the statements is also disputed. '.
Since being fired, Tuchel has not taken on any new football managerial roles. In charge of Chelsea, he led them to Champions League victory when they defeated Manchester City 1-0 in Porto. He won 60 of his 100 games under his direction.
While he was in charge, the Blues also lost two FA Cup finals and won the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup.
