Matthäus: Kompany brings the unity that Bayern has been missing for many years, and it will be even better if it succeeds again

Bayern announced earlier today that it would renew its contract with coach Kompany until 2029. German star Matthaus said this was an absolutely correct decision.

In an interview with Sky Sports Germany, Matthaus said: "Renewing the contract with Vincent Kompany is a completely correct decision for me."

Bayern now uses Kompany to make long-term plans as head coach, Matthaus Said: "This is something that has not been achieved in the past few years, whether through Tuchel, Nagelsmann, Flick or Kovac."

Matthäus said that Bayern hopes to use Kompany to re-establish the good and successful experience the club has had in the long-term planning of the head coach. He said: "The way Kompany leads is reflected across the whole club. It was the same in the past under Jupp Heynckes or Hitzfield. Since Kompany has been here, that atmosphere has come back and I think it's great. If there's success on top of all that, it's even more It's wonderful."

Matthaus emphasized: "It's not just about the championship, I have always said this. During the period of Kahn and Salihamidzic, they may have won some championships under the leadership of other coaches, but in the long run, the decisive factor is Bayern Munich. Dark atmosphere. "

"This atmosphere under Kompany is similar to that under Flick, but there were other problems at Bayern at that time, namely internal struggles among the top sports officials. "

Matthaus said: "With Kompany, the unity that Bayern has lacked for many years seems to be working. Together with coach Kompany, sporting director Eberl and sporting director Freund. If they get along in this way every day and create a positive atmosphere, then it reflects on the club externally. "
