Bayern Munich agree deal in principle with Kompany

Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has agreed a deal in principle to become the new Bayern Munich coach.

The German club moved for Kompany after a series of rejections in their search for a successor to Thomas Tuchel.

It is understood Kompany has agreed a deal until 2027, with Bayern set to pay Burnley £10.2m in compensation.

Craig Bellamy, Kompany's assistant at Burnley, will not accompany the Belgian to the Allianz Arena but Floribert Ngalula and Bram Geers will form part of his backroom staff.
