But Tuchel is understood to be keen on a return to management.
Tuchel enjoyed living in London while boss at Chelsea and was keen on the England job before the FA confirmed Gareth Southgate will stay on as Three Lions gaffer.
However, the 49-year-old out of work manager is now learning Spanish.
That suggests he could possibly be eyeing a top job in La Liga for his return to the game.
Carlo Ancelotti is out of contract at Real Madrid at the end of next season.
While reports in Spain claim Diego Simeone is set to leave Atletico Madrid this summer.
Tuchel was surprisingly sacked by new Chelsea owner Todd Boehly in September.
And his stock remains high as he searches for his next job.

He won the Champions League, Uefa Super Cup and Club World Cup during his time at Stamford Bridge, and was a two-time FA Cup runner-up.
Tuchel remains a hugely popular figure at Chelsea.
Blues fans chanted his name during the 4-0 FA Cup drubbing at the hands of Manchester City earlier this month.
