Bayern Munich have announced that head coach Vincent Kompany has extended his contract at the club.
The Belgian’s previous deal at the Allianz Arena was set to expire in 2027, but after Bayern’s strong start to the season, he has extended his stay in Munich by two years until 2029.
On the decision to extend his contract, Kompany said:
“I’m grateful, honoured and would like to thank FC Bayern for the trust and the working environment they’ve given me from day one. It feels like I’ve been here a lot longer and that I know the club well. It’s been a great experience so far. We’ve started on a wonderful journey. Let’s keep working hard and celebrate much more success!”
The Rekordmeister currently have a 100% record in all competitions as they also sit top of the Bundesliga with a five-point lead over second following their 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund at the weekend.
Bayern’s dominant spell under Kompany:
Since joining from Burnley in the summer of 2024, Kompany has made Bayern into a dominant force once again. In his first season, he led the club back to the Bundesliga title with somewhat ease.
During his 18 months at the club, Kompany has averaged 2.33 points per game.
