Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has slammed a new book about him, insisting the authors 'never spoke to me'.

'Thomas Tuchel, the biography' by Daniel Meuren and Tobias Schachter came out in Germany last April.

An updated English version, which will include his recent managerial move from Paris Saint-Germain to Stamford Bridge, is due to be published over here in spring.

Asked if he would recommend the book, Tuchel rapped: “It's very nice you give me the opportunity to point out that none of the guys that write this book ever spoke to me.

“Nobody had the authority to write it. I was very, very surprised you can write a biography about people without speaking to them or having their approval.

“It is not an autobiography. This is the key difference. Why should I read something people write about me that don't even talk to me?

“I know myself very well. So, I decided not to read it!"
