Overview
- Bayern announced on October 21 that Kompany’s deal now runs to June 30, 2029, extending the original 2027 contract.
- Kompany delivered the Bundesliga title in his first season and has opened the current campaign with 11 wins in 11 competitive matches.
- Club leaders called the move a strong vote of confidence and a signal of continuity, praising Kompany for uniting the squad and bringing back a clear, attractive style.
- The timing comes on the eve of a Champions League game against Club Brugge, a fixture with personal resonance after Kompany reported racist abuse in Bruges in 2022, with the coach stressing he wants focus kept on the match.
- Kompany was hired from Burnley in 2024 for a reported fee of around €10 million, and local reporting indicates Bayern may also look to extend contracts for his key assistants.
