According to a report from Sky Sport journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich executive Max Eberl’s tenure with the club could be a short one if Vincent Kompany scuffles as the team’s head coach:
Before Vincent #Kompany became a concrete option for FC Bayern, Uli Hoeneß advocated for Hansi #Flick again in the last days.
➡️ However, Max Eberl made a clear statement internally. Not everyone liked it, but he prevailed as he trusts his idea with Kompany
➡️ If Kompany becomes the new coach, Eberl’s future will already be closely tied to Kompany’s success. The long search for a coach faced internal criticism.
Eberl, 100 % confidence in Kompany!

As Bayern Munich embarked on a circus act of a coaching search with numerous failed attempts (aka rejections), it appears as if the Burnley boss will get the nod. The length of the search, plus the numerous ups and downs during the hiring process seem to have bothered the supervisory board — and that could mean trouble for Eberl.
As for Kompany, journalist Sacha Tavolieri is expecting him to be formally announced as Bayern Munich’s next head coach next week with the two clubs finalizing a deal for roughly €15 million:
Been told #FCBayern already working on Vincent Kompany’s communication next week. They want to make it official early next week for a presentation to the press a bit later next week.
Probably Thursday.
Soon an announcement about an agreement between clubs around 13M£ so 15,1M€. Almost there. #mercato #BurnleyFC
