Bayern new boss Vincent Kompany urges Bayern to sign £250k per week City player

Vincent Kompany is eager to use his newfound riches at Bayern Munich to acquire a star player from his former club, Manchester City. The legendary player has set a defender as his top priority for this summer.

After Burnley was relegated in the Premier League this summer following a five-game losing streak, Vincent Kompany’s transfer to Bayern Munich was not what was anticipated.

Pep Guardiola has endorsed the Belgian manager, who previously oversaw Burnley’s elimination from the Championship last season and was in charge of Anderlecht, but who struggled to produce results at Turf Moor, resulting in his side relegating to England’s second division within a year of departing.

This prompted Bayern, who have been unsuccessful in acquiring a multitude of managers this summer, to make an effort to reclaim the dominance they endured at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen this season, which ultimately resulted in their lack of trophies.

“I am eager to face the challenge that FC Bayern will present.” “Being able to work for FC Bayern is an incredible privilege; the Bavarian giants FC Bayern are an institution in international football,” Kompany said upon his introduction.

Presently, he is reportedly identifying his priority acquisitions, which includes a player from his former club Manchester City.

This is John Stones, a former comrade who has experienced a decline in importance at the Etihad this season.

The Englishman’s injury-plagued campaign resulted in only 12 Premier League starts and 11 appearances as an unused substitute; it was a dramatic decline from his outstanding performance in the treble-winning campaign the previous year.

The Englishman, whose contract in Manchester pays him £250,000 per week, has two years remaining, has reportedly been weighing his options and may now have been granted an exit.

Kompany has reportedly told sources in Spain that Stones’ versatility would make him a “valuable” signing this summer as he attempts to make his impression on Bayern. As a result, Stones is considered his “priority” this summer.

Since they both played together for several years at the Etihad, they are well acquainted, and Kompany has previously been effusive in his adulation of his former defensive partner.

“John has consistently impressed me as one of the most gifted defenders,” “His future is so bright,” the Belgian explained in 2019. “He is simply an exceptional defender. Undoubtedly, matters will resolve themselves if he is granted the opportunity to engage in gaming activities at this time.

Due to Dayot Upamecano’s continued error propensity and Kim Min-Jae’s flattering to deceive performance at the Allianz Arena, Bayern have been compelled to rely more often than not on emergency signing Eric Dier at the heart of their defense. While the Englishman has put forth some outstanding displays, his shortcomings are well-known.

Stones would undoubtedly strengthen Bayern’s defense, but it is uncertain whether the club would be prepared to pay the transfer fee that Manchester City would almost certainly demand for the Englishman this summer.
