Bayern Munich’s Bold Move: Vincent Kompany Appointed As New Manager

Bayern Munich has named Vincent Kompany as their new head coach, officially presenting him at a press conference on Thursday.

The former Manchester City captain, who recently departed Burnley after their relegation from the Premier League, replaces Thomas Tuchel.

Despite widespread astonishment in the football community, Kompany was not taken aback by the offer.

Kompany emphasized his unwavering self-belief, stating, “I’ve always felt like I’ve worked for a top club in my mind.” He replaces Tuchel after Bayern’s failed attempts to secure Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso, Germany’s Julian Nagelsmann, and Austria’s Ralf Rangnick.

Outlining his vision for Bayern Munich, Kompany desired to instill his team’s character with traits he values deeply.

Kompany’s managerial journey began at Anderlecht, his boyhood club, before moving to Burnley in 2022. While he initially succeeded in promoting Burnley to the Premier League, his tenure ended in disappointment with their relegation.

Bayern Munich have signed Kompany on a contract until June 2027, signaling their confidence in his potential to lead the team back to glory after their first trophyless season in 12 years.

EPL: Sign Osimhen instead of Gyokeres – Ferdinand advises Man United

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has advised his former club to sign Victor Osimhen instead of Viktor Gyokeres.

The Red Devils are in search of more firepower upfront after an underwhelming campaign.

The duo of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee failed to deliver the goods, with United finishing in a disappointing 15th position on the table.

Ruben Amorim’s side also lost to Tottenham Hotspur in the final of the UEFA Europa League.

Gyokeres, who had an outstanding campaign for Portuguese club Sporting Lisbon, has been linked with a move to Old Trafford.

The forward scored 39 goals and registered eight assists to help Sporting Lisbon clinch the Portuguese League title.

Despite his impressive form in front of goal, Ferdinand believed Osimhen would be a better fit for his old club.

“I think Gyokeres, everyone’s talking about him. Again, I think if I’m looking at the market now and I had to pick him or Osimhen, I’d probably pick Osimhen because of that experience,” the former England international told the Mirror.

Galatasaray are ready to take Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson if the Blues sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen on a permanent transfer.

This was disclosed by Turkish football expert Serdar Ali Çelikler.

Speaking on the Neo Spor YouTube channel via habersarikirmizi, Ali Çelikler insisted that the Nigeria international is waiting for a move to the English Premier League, EPL, this summer.

“They [Galatasaray ] are also waiting for Osimhen. I think they will wait until August,” Ali Çelikler said.

“Osimhen is not in a hurry and is waiting for a move from England.”

He added, “If Chelsea takes Osimhen, Galatasaray will enter for Nicolas Jackson.

“What I have heard is that if Chelsea gets Osimhen, Galatasaray will also get Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea.”

Osimhen had a spectacular season-long loan at Galatasaray, winning the Turkish Super Lig title and the Turkish Cup after scoring 37 goals in all competitions for the club.
