Dante had definitely imagined his start as coach of Bayern Munich's second team differently: on Friday evening, the FCB youngsters suffered their second defeat in their second game of the season.
Dante will coach Bayern Munich’s reserves in future. Ahead of the start of the season, he spoke about his move, his role and Vincent Kompany’s influence.
With FC Bayern, Dante won the treble and became a cult hero; in Nice, he eventually earned the nickname "The Father". Now the 42-year-old Brazilian is returning to Munich as a coach.
Despite suffering serious injuries, FC Bayern Munich is sending a clear message: two young players have been offered new contracts, with the club showing its faith in them during a particularly difficult period.
