The contest was Thiago Silva's last game for the club - with Chelsea reportedly close to signing the Brazilian - with a number of players moving on from Parc des Princes in recent weeks.

Tuchel admits his side could stand to take a leaf out of Bayern's book in terms of their recruitment and admitted additions are needed ahead of a gruelling 2020-21 season.

"Honestly, we lost Edinson Cavani, Thomas Meunier and now Thiago Silva. its a lot of players," Tuchel told BT Sport. "When I see like Bayern, investing in the squad and keeping the squad together, if we want to compete at this level, we have to use the transfer window now.
