Bayern Munich named Vincent Kompany as the new coach of the German giants on a three-year contract on Wednesday.
The Belgian, 38, joins Bayern despite overseeing Burnley’s relegation from the Premier League this season.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge at FC Bayern,” Kompany said on Wednesday.
“As a coach, you have to stand for who you are as a person: I love having possession of the ball, being creative and we also have to be aggressive on the pitch and brave”.
“I’m now looking forward to the most basic things: working with the players, building a team. When the foundation is in place, success will follow,” he added.
