The Bayern Munich hierarchy are reportedly becoming irritated with head coach Thomas Tuchel just three games into the season.
The Bavarians signed five players during the recent transfer window, one of which was Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur in a club record deal reportedly worth £100million deal.
However, it is believed that Tuchel was more concerned about strengthening the midfield department by signing a number six, with Declan Rice and Joao Palhinha his preferred targets.

Rice ended up joining Arsenal while a deal for Palhinha collapsed on the final day of the transfer window despite the player already completing his medical and photo shoot in team colours.
German publication BILD have reported that the hierarchy have grown irritated with Tuchel's behaviour in the transfer window.
The club have seemingly become annoyed with the German coach's public utterances about his squad and the transfers.
The report adds that one of bosses' frustrations was Tuchel pushing to sign Rice, even though the club had made Kane their priority target before the season as they were looking to find a successor to Robert Lewandowski, who had left the season before.
Tuchel was vocal about the depth in the squad after the side's 2-1 win over Borussia Monchengladbach before the international.
"The squad is a bit thin, a bit small. We have six trained defensive players for a four-man chain, which is perfect."
Bayern have started the Bundesliga season with three straight victories, although they sit second on table, level on points with league leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
