Vincent Kompany is set to become the new head coach of Bayern Munich, according to reports. The former Belgium international, who recently managed the now-relegated Premier League side Burnley, will replace Thomas Tuchel following his departure from the club at the end of the 2023/24 season. Renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Bayern and Burnley have agreed on a compensation fee of 12 million euros, with the contract already finalized.
The agreement spans three years, marking a significant career move for Kompany, who led Burnley to the Championship title two seasons ago, securing their promotion to the Premier League. However, Burnley struggled to compete in the top flight, finishing at the bottom of the table and facing an immediate return to the Championship next season, alongside Luton Town and Sheffield United.
Kompany's appointment at Bayern Munich signifies a fresh start for the Bundesliga giants, who are looking to rebuild after a turbulent season. With his previous success in guiding Burnley to promotion, Bayern's management hopes Kompany can bring a new dynamic to the team and restore their dominance in German football.
