Bayern extend Vincent Kompany contract to 2029

Bayern Munich announced on Tuesday that they have extended coach Vincent Kompany's contract by two years, keeping the Belgian at the club until the summer of 2029, after a debut season that saw him win the Bundesliga and an unbeaten start to the current campaign. The club confirmed the deal a day after Kompany's side completed a perfect run of 11 wins from their opening 11 matches across all competitions and while Bayern sit atop both the Bundesliga and their Champions League group.

Kompany, 39, who was appointed in the summer of 2024, had an initial agreement that ran to 2027. He reclaimed the German title for Bayern in his first season, ending Bayer Leverkusen's hold on the championship, and has maintained strong form this term. The 11 straight victories include seven league wins from seven Bundesliga fixtures, two Champions League results, one German Cup match and the season-opening Super Cup, the club said.

"It feels to me as if I have been here much longer already and that I understand the club well," Kompany said in the club statement. "So far, it has been a great experience we have started a wonderful journey. Lets keep working hard and celebrate many more successes."
