As he faces sanctions on his club owner Roman Abramovich, it turns out that even the personal life of Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel, 49, is crashing, while his wife of 13 years Sisi filed for divorce documents last week ahead of the separation of powers.
This is what the Daily Mail reveals.
A source close to the family said that "the divorce comes after a series of unsuccessful attempts to repair and treat the marriage and the couple is exhausted from it. In fact it is a very sad event and both parties are now making sure their daughters are not harmed by the divorce."
Sisi Tuchel (46), is a former journalist of the German Süddeutsche Zeitung and she has given up a successful career in the field to support her husband and family during his professional career.
"This is not an ordinary footballer woman who mainly depends on her husband, as there is often a stigma, this is a very strong woman who is part of his success and career. She is part of the trophies he has won in Germany, France and the UK," the source told the Daily Mail.
Tuchel, herself, moved to the UK in August this year, seven months after her husband joined Chelsea from the French team that coached Paris Saint-Germain.
At first she lived in a hotel and then moved into an apartment building near the group's training ground.
Either way the couple will now share the profits as well as the future salary of the husband which stands at £ 7 million a year. The main reason for this is the centrality of his wife in his professional life as well as the career she gave up for him. Determined together with Sisi to end the divorce amicably.
Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel, himself highly acclaimed in the UK, for his tackle on the sanctions Chelsea are suffering from due to its owner Roman Abramovich.
Chelsea are now facing the fact that they can not buy or sell players, can not extend contracts to players who already play for the team and also can not sell tickets for its games.
This is a huge difficulty for the Premier League team, but the coach manages to maintain the unity of the team until a new buyer is found.
