Kompany was eager about the opportunity to manage Bayern and told us a little about his style of play.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge of Bayern. It’s a great honor to be able to work for this club. As a coach, you need to defend who you are as a person: I love having the ball, being creative, and we also have to be aggressive and courageous on the pitch. I’m Looking forward to the most basic things: working with the players, forming a team. When the foundation is established, success comes.
Managing Burnely last season, Kompany didn’t have much success. He finished the English Championship in 19th place, causing the team’s relegation to the Second Division.
In addition to Burnely, Kompany has already managed Anderlecht, in Belgium. As a player, he made history at Manchester City, where he won multiple titles.
