Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has revealed that Carlo Ancelotti's position at the club became untenable after a group of players turned against the Italian.
The former Chelsea manager was sacked by the Bundesliga giants on Thursday following a 3-0 hammering at the hands of former club Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
In announcing the decision, Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge claimed that Ancelotti's dismissal was due to the team's performances failing to meet expectations.
Hoeness, however, claimed that dressing-room divisions also played their part, telling the Westfalenpost: "There were five players against Ancelotti. It was impossible to get out of that."
Ancelotti left Bayern having won 42 of his 60 games in charge at the Allianz Arena.
