Bayern have found their new manager! Vincent Kompany reaches agreement with German giants with ex-Man City star to replace Thomas Tuchel

The managerial search began in earnest after Bayern Munich announced in February that Thomas Tuchel would be departing the Allianz Arena this summer. The departure of Tuchel, coupled with unsuccessful negotiations with candidates such as Xabi Alonso and Ralf Rangnick, left Bayern in a challenging position and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/vincent-kompany-linked-move-to-bayern-munich-possibility-bringing-in-burnley-boss/bltd2809deeb088202b" target="_blank">have now been forced to turn their attention to Kompany</a> - who failed to prevent Burnley from going down to the Championship after a horrific Premier League campaign.

WHAT HAPPENED?

According to <a href="https://sport.sky.de/fussball/artikel/vincent-kompany-und-der-fc-bayern-haben-sich-muendlich-geeinigt-sky-info/13141525/34130" target="_blank">Sky Sports</a>, the verbal agreement between Bayern and Kompany is now in place, and official negotiations with Burnley have commenced. While a formal deal has yet to be finalized, the parties are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/bayern-munich-vincent-kompany-set-to-become-harry-kane-new-manager-shock-appointment/blta3e3fc2dddc439d5#cs79fa965a2419cfa1" target="_blank">reportedly optimistic about the potential for Kompany </a>to take on this significant new role. However, any potential transfer would involve a fee as the former Manchester City star is contracted to the Clarets until 2028.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Kompany's tenure with the Lancashire club was a mixed bag after managing Anderlecht in Belgium. Despite the setback of Burnley's relegation this season, he demonstrated his managerial acumen by guiding the club to a commanding performance in the Sky Bet Championship in 2022-23, where they amassed 101 points and secured promotion to the top flight.

DID YOU KNOW?

The task ahead for Kompany, should he finalize the move to Bayern, is substantial. The Bavarian club, known for its high expectations and competitive standards, will look to the former Premier League legend to instill a winning mentality after a trophyless season. The transition will require Kompany to adapt quickly to the demands and pressures of managing one of Europe’s top clubs, a significant leap from his previous managerial experiences - as Harry Kane and Co will be eager to witness a new leadership that can harness their potential and return the club to its customary position of dominance in both domestic and European competitions.
