Bayern Munich Credits Pep Guardiola for Endorsing Vincent Kompany as New Coach
Bayern Munich has revealed that former manager Pep Guardiola played a significant role in convincing the club to appoint Vincent Kompany as their new coach.
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, the club's chairman, disclosed that Guardiola spoke highly of Kompany's coaching abilities, which greatly influenced their decision.
In an interview with Sky, Rummenigge stated, "Pep Guardiola was also helping us with Kompany; he spoke very highly of Vincent as a talented coach." He further emphasized the importance of Guardiola's endorsement, saying, "Pep knows Vincent well, and his opinion was really appreciated."
Kompany, a former Manchester City captain and Belgian football legend, has been appointed as the new coach of Bayern Munich, succeeding Julian Nagelsmann. Guardiola's recommendation carries significant weight, given his successful tenure at Bayern Munich from 2013 to 2016 and his experience working with Kompany during their time together at Manchester City.
Rummenigge's revelation highlights the respect and admiration Guardiola has for Kompany's coaching potential, which likely played a crucial role in Bayern Munich's decision to appoint him as their new coach.
