Bayern Munich’s plan to welcome back Jerome Boateng as an intern under Vincent Kompany has collapsed amid fan outrage over the former defender’s past conviction. The ex-German international, who had hoped to begin his coaching journey at the club where he won everything, has now stepped back, urging focus on Bayern’s success while he turns toward his A-license studies.
Bayern Munich’s perfect start to the season continues with 13 wins in 13 games across all competitions, setting a new European record under Vincent Kompany. Yet, history could’ve looked very different.

Vincent Kompany has "reinvented" Bayern Munich and turned the Bundesliga giants into one of the top contenders for the Champions League title this season, club legend Lothar Matthaus says. The Bavarian side still have a perfect record this season and it is due to the Belgian coach's "honesty and clarity" that they have enjoyed such a blistering start, according to the former Germany star.
Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany announced the decision to rest first-choice veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer for the upcoming Bundesliga clash. The decision to drop him from the starting lineup means that 22-year-old understudy Jonas Urbig will get an opportunity to show he can be counted upon despite Neuer still going strong.
Vincent Kompany’s contract extension with Bayern Munich has sparked fresh debate over his long-term ambitions, with former player Dietmar Hamann suggesting the Belgian coach could have a Manchester City exit clause. While Bayern insist the deal shows “commitment and continuity” with Kompany, speculation grows over whether the Belgian could one day succeed Pep Guardiola.
Bayern Munich are hoping Vincent Kompany's recent contract extension will play a pivotal role in helping them reach an agreement with Dayot Upamecano.

Bayern Munich cruised past Club Brugge 4-0 on Wednesday, with 17-year-old Lennart Karl stealing the spotlight by scoring a stunning opener on his full Champions League debut while becoming the club’s youngest-ever scorer in the competition. Coach Vincent Kompany hailed the teenager's brilliance but urged restraint, calling the hype around him “not normal.”
Vincent Kompany's surprise contract extension with Bayern Munich was a result of secretive talks with the club, as the Bavarians moved to tie down their "most important employee".

Bayern Munich were "absolutely" correct to hand Vincent Kompany a new contract, says club legend Lothar Matthaus. The former Germany star says the positive effect of the Belgian coach's leadership is evident throughout the club, praising Kompany for his influence on team spirit and the positive atmosphere that has returned to the Bundesliga champions.
Bayern Munich would have paid even more than €100 million to for Harry Kane had they known just how prolific he would be, CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen says. After two sensational seasons with the German side, his third is off to a flying start, scoring a whopping 19 goals in 11 games with the German giants winning every match they have played so far, sparking talk of a new contract for the 32-year-old.
Bayern Munich have announced that manager Vincent Kompany has penned a contract extension with the Bavarian giants.

Bayern Munich fans have erupted in protest after learning that former defender Jerome Boateng was invited to observe training sessions under Vincent Kompany.

Harry Kane has earned “crazy” praise after posting Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo-esque numbers, with the Bayern Munich superstar reaching 400 goals at club level.

Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl has made it clear that extending Dayot Upamecano’s contract is a top priority for the club. The French centre-back, who joined in 2021, is out of contract next June, and with several European giants circling, Bayern are trying hard to keep one of their key players beyond 2025. However, Upamecano’s high wage demands have made negotiations challenging.
Ahead of the German Clasico against Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany praised Harry Kane’s mindset, saying the striker’s long wait for silverware has only fuelled his hunger for success.
