Bayern Munich defender Mats Hummels has hit out at being labelled a "king slayer" in the wake of Carlo Ancelotti's sacking as head coach of Bayern Munich.
The Italian was dismissed last week following his side's 3-0 Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in France, with assistant Willy Sagnol placed in charge on an interim basis.

President Uli Hoeness later claimed five senior players had turned against Ancelotti, making his position at the Allianz Arena untenable.
Hummels was surprisingly left out of the starting line-up for that defeat in Paris, prompting rumours he was among those to have fallen out with the former AC Milan and Real Madrid boss.
