Kompany Targets Champions League Glory as Bayern Prepares for New Season
Vincent Kompany said new signings could help Bayern end a five-year Champions League title drought after last season’s semifinal exit.
- Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany told reporters in Hong Kong on Thursday that winning the Champions League is the club's goal, ahead of Friday's friendly against Aston Villa.
- Kompany acknowledged it would be 'really tough' to improve on last season's domestic double, as Bayern seeks its first Champions League title since 2020 after losing to Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinals.
- Several stars including Michael Olise and Harry Kane did not travel for the Asia tour, while Bayern added midfielder Ismael Saibari and defender Nathaniel Brown to strengthen the squad.
- Regarding transfer rumors, Kompany echoed Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen's insistence last week that Olise remains at the club, while shrugging off a Bild report about the French attacker's private life.
- Bayern kicks off the Bundesliga season at home against Stuttgart on August 28, while Aston Villa travels to Brighton for its Premier League opening fixture on August 23.
