Bayern Munich has appointed Vincent Kompany as their new head coach on a three-year contract, announced on Wednesday.
Despite leading Burnley to relegation from the Premier League this season, the 38-year-old Belgian is eager to embrace the challenge at one of Germany’s top clubs.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge at FC Bayern,” Kompany expressed on Wednesday.
“As a coach, you have to stand for who you are as a person: I love having possession of the ball, being creative and we also have to be aggressive on the pitch and brave,” he added.
Kompany further elaborated on his vision, saying, “I’m now looking forward to the most basic things: working with the players, building a team. When the foundation is in place, success will follow.”
