Legend Lineker:
“Kompany is a risk for Bayern!”
FC Bayern have taken a "risk" with Vincent Kompany as their new coach, says former England international and BBC pundit Gary Lineker.
After all, at 38, Kompany is still a young coach in the business. "Kompany is definitely a risk because he doesn't really have any experience. You don't get Pep Guardiola here. He's not at the end of his development yet, he was first a coach in Belgium and then at Burnley," said Lineker in an interview with "Sportbild".
"Kompany was a bit stubborn when it came to his style of play"
Kompany was promoted from the English second division to the Premier League with Burnley FC in the 2022/23 season. However, he only won five of 38 games with the Clarets and drew nine times. "Kompany's first Burnley season was great, with good soccer. After promotion, it became much more difficult, even though Burnley had invested money in players - albeit not very successfully. Kompany was a bit stubborn about the way he played. But it will be much easier at Bayern because he has better players at his disposal than at Burnley," says Lineker.
Lineker has a high regard for Kompany: "I like Vincent, he has something, he's very intelligent and will become a really good coach. I wish him that. He has that demeanor to gain respect at a club. That's very important at Bayern."
Kompany welcomed his players to Säbener Straße for the start of training today. On August 16, the German record champions, who only finished third in the Bundesliga last season, will start the new season in the DFB Cup against SSV Ulm.
