In a surprising turn of events, German giants Bayern Munich have announced Vincent Kompany as their new manager. The former Manchester City captain has signed a three-year deal, leaving his post at recently relegated Burnley behind.

Shock Appointment After Burnley Relegation

Kompany's move to Bayern Munich comes as a surprise to many. He was expected to lead Burnley back to the Premier League after their disappointing 19th place finish and relegation in the 2023/24 season. Reports suggest that discussions between Bayern and Burnley chairman Alan Pace regarding compensation for Kompany were underway for a swift resolution.

Official Statements

Bayern Munich confirmed the news on Wednesday, stating, "Vincent Kompany is the new head coach of FC Bayern, putting pen to paper on a deal until 2027."

Burnley also released a statement, acknowledging Kompany's departure: "We can confirm that Burnley FC has come to an agreement that will allow Vincent Kompany to leave Turf Moor... We understand the allure and prestige of a club like Bayern Munich and respect Vincent's ambition to explore new opportunities."

Bayern's Managerial Search

Bayern Munich had been on the hunt for a replacement for Thomas Tuchel since his departure was announced three months ago. Names like Xabi Alonso, Julian Nagelsmann (former Bayern coach), and Ralf Rangnick were reportedly in consideration, but all declined the offer. The club even attempted to convince Tuchel to stay on, but their efforts were unsuccessful.
