Breaking: Vincent-Kompany Agrees To Become New Bayern Munich-Coach
Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has agreed a deal in principle to become the new Bayern Munich coach….CONTINUE READING
The German club moved for Kompany after facing several rejections in their search for a successor to Thomas Tuchel. It is understood that Kompany has agreed to a deal until 2027, with Bayern set to pay Burnley £10.2 million in compensation.
Craig Bellamy, Kompany’s assistant at Burnley, will not join him at the Allianz Arena. However, Floribert Ngalula and Bram Geers will be part of his backroom staff.
Bayern had initially targeted Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso, former manager Julian Nagelsmann, and Austria coach Ralf Rangnick following their decision to part ways with Tuchel. However, the trio rejected the position.
Tuchel held discussions with Bayern earlier in May about staying on, but no agreement was reached.
Kompany, 38, has earned a solid reputation during his tenures at Anderlecht and Burnley. A four-time Premier League winner with Manchester City as a player, Kompany became Anderlecht’s head coach in 2020 following a stint as player-manager before moving to Turf Moor.
The Belgian guided Burnley to the Championship title in 2023, although the Clarets were relegated from the Premier League this season.
