„Displeasure“ at Bayern: Hoeneß in favour of Flick instead of Kompany! | OneFootball

Vincent Kompany is on the verge of becoming Bayern’s new coach. Max Eberl wants him at all costs. However, the FCB sporting director apparently first had to prevail over Uli Hoeneß. The honorary president is said to have spoken out in favour of Hansi Flick.

Everything is apparently clear between FC Bayern and coach Vincent Kompany, the Munich club only has to agree on a transfer fee with his current employer Burnley FC. The Belgian probably has a big advocate among the Bayern bosses in Max Eberl. However, the sporting director of the German record champions apparently first had to prevail over club patriarch Uli Hoeneß in the matter of the coach.

This was reported by Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg. He explained: „There was once again – let’s say – displeasure in the past few days. The top bosses, including Uli Hoeneß, once again spoke out in favour of Hansi Flick. But Eberl said: ‚No. Trust me. I see something in Vincent Kompany‘.“

So even after Eberl’s appointment as sporting director, Hoeneß continues to have his say at FC Bayern. In the search for the new FCB coach in particular, there have been repeated reports in recent weeks that the honorary president and supervisory board member has repeatedly voiced his opinion.

Detailed talks between Eberl and Kompany

Now, however, a deal with Kompany appears to be imminent. According to Sky, detailed talks have already taken place between the 38-year-old and Eberl. According to the report, Kompany made it clear how he envisages „his“ Bayern squad. Possible new signings have also been discussed.

Meanwhile, Kompany is confident of working with super talents, but also with big names. Eberl is fully convinced by the former HSV professional. He sees Kompany as a „Xabi Alonso 2.0“. The Leverkusen champion coach was FC Bayern’s absolute favourite solution – at the very beginning of a long coaching search that could soon come to an end with the signing of Kompany.
