Bayern Munich have also given a 2-year contract extension to their coach Vincent Kompany which keeps him with the club till 2029. This announcement will be in the day that the German champions see their impeccable start to the season as they have won all the 11 games in all competitions.
Since Bayern needed a long time before a successor of Thomas Tuchel could be found, the replacement, whom the club eventually found in Kompany in 2024, has soon become a central figure in the club. His managerial record at Bayern shows that the Belgian managed to lead the club to the Bundesliga title in his first year of management thereafter, and currently, he is on a streak of seven wins in seven league matches.
Vincent Kompany, in a statement by the club said that it feels like I have been here much longer than already. I know the club rather well, and it has been a good experience all along. This is a very good start to a great journey and I wish we could continue to work hard and have many more successful moments together.
Club president Herbert Hainer was flattered with the leadership of Kompany and the feeling of stability he has created at Bayern. Haiser said, this is a good sign of confidence in his great work. The players, management and fans value Kampany a great deal. We are delighted to extend this cooperation prematurely.
In an interview at a press conference, Kompany dismissed the hype of his new deal. I did not spend any time thinking about it, said he. I just asked that the announcement would not divert us in the preparation of the next game. It was overtly and expeditiously done in order that focus could be on football. Bayern is not a bad place to work at all.
On Wednesday, Bayern host Club Brugges in the champions league hoping to win their third consecutive group stage match. In the case of Kompany, it is a personal encounter, as he started his career in the archrivals Anderlecht in Belgium. He confesses that playing a Belgian team would be a little rivalry bearing in mind the previous tensions during his time as a coach in Belgium.
Vincent Kompany played in Anderlecht and Burnley before joining Bayern where he was promoted to the premier league in 2023 with a possession-oriented attacking style. Although he was relegated the next year, his philosophy showed itself to the board of Bayern who were currently excelling with the same approach in Munich, which was implemented by Burnley.
