Newly appointed Bayern coach: - Max Eberl views Vincent Kompany as an intriguing narrative.
Ending soon, the rollercoaster journey of finding a new coach for FC Bayern Munich will come to a close, with Vincent Kompany stepping into the spotlight. Munich's Sporting Director Max Eberl expressed his contentment, stating that Kompany is a "great find" and "an exciting story we can't wait to create." Kompany is set to be introduced to the public for the first time as Bayern's coach on May 30, 2024, in front of the Allianz Arena. Eberl declared that "everyone who meets him will quickly realize what a magnificent individual he is."
Kompany signed a contract with the Munich team after leaving relegated FC Burnley and chose to stay with Bayern until June 30, 2027. His previous club wished him nothing but the best in his new role. "After initially believing we could keep our coach, the rapidly changing circumstances made that impossible," Burnley said.
FC Bayern pays a massive release fee of up to twelve million euros for Kompany
FC Bayern is reported to pay a release fee of ten to twelve million euros to secure Kompany's services, bringing an end to the extended search for a new head coach. Initially, Xabi Alonso, Julian Nagelsmann, and Ralf Rangnick had dropped out of the running, and attempts to cancel the termination of Thomas Tuchel's contract were unsuccessful.
Eberl revealed there had been "many, many long conversations" with Kompany about the squad and playing style. "The discussions were very pleasant," said Freund. Kompany's football aligns well with FC Bayern's style of play.
The new coach, Kompany, views FC Bayern as an institution
Kompany spoke of Bayern as a symbol of strength: "I see the FC Bayern as an institution, but I'm most excited about the little things. Working with players, working with the people in this building. Constructing a team - I don't think you need to overcomplicate it. The rest will naturally follow."
Kompany's football style promises to be "attacking, powerful, and consistent." "I grew up on the streets of Brussels and love the ball. I appreciate players who aren't afraid to take risks with the ball," Kompany said. Following a season without any titles, Bayern plans to rebuild its team and put their faith in Kompany, who is anticipated to strenghten their lineup, especially in defense.
As stated by Freund, "He can and will deliver a lot to our team." Training for Bayern begins on July 15 - one day after the European Championship final. The Munich team's preseason plans include an Asian tour in preparation for the upcoming season.
