The protests against Wenger carrying on as boss next season have reached fever pitch in recent weeks, with mass mass demonstrations in and around the Emirates before and after games.

On Saturday against West Brom, there was even a plane flown over the Hawthorns trailing the "Wenger Out" slogan.

Tuchel took over at Borussia Dortmund after Jurgen Klopp left to take over at Liverpool.

He has been described as intense leader, who demands the most out of his players in training as well as the matches.

He led his side to a second-place Bundesliga finish in his first season in charge behind Bayern Munich.

Dortmund are into the last eight of the Champions League, and are set to face Monaco next time out.
