Vincent Kompany 'agrees to become Bayern Munich manager' despite being relegated with Burnley as the Man City legend prepares to replace Thomas Tuchel

Vincent Kompany has agreed a deal in principle to become the next Bayern Munich manager, according to reports.

The Burnley boss was amongst the shortlist of names to replace Thomas Tuchel at the Bundesliga giants and now looks set to make the switch to Germany.

Kompany is excited by the opportunity to become Bayern Munich's next first-team head coach and wants to get the deal signed off as soon as possible, as reported by German media.

Burnley were relegated from the Premier League upon their first season back in the English top-flight as Kompany struggled to adjust his tactical approach.
