Kompany closes on Bayern move after Guardiola backing
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, the long-time chairperson of Bayern Munich's supervisory board, says only the final details are needed before Vincent Kompany is appointed as their new head coach.

Rummenigge added the final decision to appoint Kompany had been made by Max Eberl, the sporting director, with backing from Pep Guardiola, Kompany's manager at Manchester City.

Kompany is expected to sign a three-year deal to replace Thomas Tuchel, with Burnley receiving compensation of between £9m and £11m.

Speaking in Sardinia, Rummenigge said: "Our sports director has decided on Kompany. It is not official yet - only the final details need to be clarified.

"It was Guardiola who recommended the choice. He did us a great favour. He had him as captain at Manchester City and also followed him when he was at Burnley.

"Pep knows Vincent well and his opinion is very highly regarded by us."
