One Bayern Munich star has reportedly become annoyed with manager Thomas Tuchel despite the side's strong start to the season.
Defender Matthijs de Ligt is yet to start a game under Tuchel this season, with his four appearances in the Bundesliga coming off the bench.
German publication BILD have reported that the Netherlands international is now becoming frustrated with his situation, especially after he was an unused substitute against Manchester United on Wednesday.

The Bavarians opened their UEFA Champions League campaign with a win over the Red Devils, but did concede three goals on the night.
The report adds that the Dutch defender steamed out of the Allianz Arena without commentating on the encounter.
Ahead of the weekend's Bundesliga clash against Bochum, Tuchel addressed the Dutch defender's playing time this campaign.
"As a centre-back, you don't get many opportunities to be subbed on," Tuchel told the media, as per Goal.
"Matthijs 100% deserves to play. He's in good shape. Of course his playing time so far is not enough for him personally, but he's a team player".
De Ligt last started for Bayern in the German Super Cup clash against RB Leipzig and was taken off at halftime, with new signing Kim Min-Jae and Dayot Upamecano now the preferred centre-back pairing.
