After a promising start to the season under Bayern Munich coach, Vincent Kompany, Sacha Boey’s meniscus tear, suffered in mid-September, has since halted all progress for the French right-back.
Despite the injury setback, the 24-year old has been back in team training since the beginning of November and is working hard towards a return to first team action.
After nearly one year with Die Roten, Sport1 took the time to sit down with the Frenchman to get his impressions of Germany and Bayern (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
“I feel absolutely home in Munich. It took me a while to get used to things because I always analyse and question things a lot. I speak a lot with people and it’s easy to open up here. I’m getting better and better at using the language, which makes everyday life a lot easier for me. Overall, I’m very happy with how things are going – and I hope that things will continue to improve,” Boey said.
Boey went on to share what has left the biggest impression on him during his tenure at Bayern.
“What stands out most is the professionalism. Whether it’s during training, during games or even on away trips: everything is always well organized,” Boey said.
Despite his short time with Bayern, Boey has already had to endure a change of head coach after Thomas Tuchel and the club decided to part ways. Bayern eventually chose Vincent Kompany to succeed the German coach.
Regardless of Boey’s limited minutes under Tuchel, the right-back expressed a positive relationship with the current Three Lions coach and feels similarly about Kompany.
“I had a very good relationship with him, he was a really good coach for me. Now we have a new coach in Vincent Kompany and things are going really well,” Boey remarked.
It sounds like Boey has settled in nicely in Bayern and left an overall positive impression.
